ARTHUR HAMILTON's songs have been
performed by Dinah Washington, Harry Connick Jr., Barbara Streisand,
Johnny Mathis, Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, and countless others.
His professional break came through the movie "Pete Kelly's Blues." Hamilton contributed two songs for that film, "Sing A Rainbow" and "He Needs Me." Both were performed by Peggy Lee in the film. Arthur Hamilton had formal piano training from the time he was 7 until he was 15; he also studied music theory and counterpoint. Other than Glee Club in Junior High School, he was not involved in any school music program. He was born into a family of musicians, but he believes music in the schools is incredibly important, both musically and sociologically. He is now deeply involved in the effort to return music to the classroom on a national basis. |
