Dan Moses Schreier has worked extensively in the theater as a composer and a sound designer. His music compositions for the theater include Broadway productions of Dance of Death; Topdog/Underdog; Bring in 'Da Noise, Bring in 'Da Funk; Julius Caesar; and more. He composed soundscapes for Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, Tony Kushner's Homebody/Kabul and Claudia Shear's Dirty Blonde and also collaborated with Dan Hurlin on the chamber opera, The Shoulder. Schreier grew up in Detroit, Michigan in a musical world surrounded by the Motown sounds, the early punk rock of Iggy Pop and the Stooges and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and briefly attended the University of Michigan, studying music composition with William Bolcom. At Bolcom's suggestion, he got a job on a new musical being developed at the University called Up from Paradise, a collaboration between Arthur Miller and Stanley Silverman, launching a career that has resulted in numerous awards and honors.
