From the back cover: Andrew Kazdin holds a Bachelor of Music Degree in Composition from the New England Conservatory of Music, and a Master of Science in Industrial Management (with a concentration in acoustics) from M.I.T. He is a Producer in the Masterworks Department of Columbia Records and has contributed to several Columbia albums as arranger and conductor. In addition, he is a composer with several published works. He is also a timpanist and plays professionally in the New York area.

Thomas Z. Shepard is a Producer for Columbia Records, both Masterworks and Original Cast albums. After graduating from the Preparatory Division of the Juilliard School of Music, he earned his Bachelor of Arts from Oberlin College, majoring in Piano and Composition. This was followed by graduate work in Composition at the Yale School of Music. He has composed, arranged and conducted on several Columbia albums. He is active as a pianist, particularly in the field of chamber music.

To provide an accurate list of all the Columbia Recording Engineers who worked with us on this project over its two-year gestation period would be practically identical to providing a roster of the department staff. We thank them all. However, it would grossly unjust if special mention were not made, and special thanks not paid, to Stew Romain, Raymond Moore and Robert Waller, each of whom mixed an extra drop of blood with our own along the way. – A.K., T.Z.S.
