PAUL RUDOLPH with SESAME STREET SEASON 40
Season 40 has wrapped and Paul Rudolph enjoyed an amazing season with Sesame Street. Paul composed a feature song, coached vocals for puppet characters, human cast members, and guest stars, plus edited music and vocal tracks. He also worked closely on set with directors and talent during musical segments and insert pieces.
Highlights include:
Feature song "Guess The Seasons Song" lyrics by long-time Sesame Street writer Annie Evans, music by Paul Rudolph and featuring Rosita, Zoe, and Abby Cadabby.
Guest singer/song-writer Jason Mraz performed with a large cast on his Grammy-nominated song "I'm Yours". The writers cleverly changed this to "Outdoors" and altered Jason's lyrics to sing about going outside and playing. For this song Paul produced Jason's vocals as well as Elmo, Big Bird, Rosita, Baby Bear and Abby Cadabby.
Other highlights - Paul worked with the following guest stars on various songs:
Lin-Manuel Miranda (Tony Award and Grammy for "In The Heights")
Jimmy Fallon
Adam Sandler
Paul Rudd
11-year-old blind singer Rocco Fiorentino
