Composer and Musician John Wineglass

As an Emmy-winning soundtrack composer for TV and film and as a session/backing musician (piano, violin, viola), John Wineglass can write or play just about anything. Gospel, classical, R<B, country, folk, Latin – he can swing it. But it's his serious concert works he's most proud of, like his new orchestral piece Someone Else's Child, premiering at the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music on August 4. We discussed the new composition, John's dual-track musical education – playing classical in a well-known youth orchestra and gospel in church – and his jack-of-all-genres commercial work.
