with World Famous POPS Conductor, Richard
Hayman
Even after more than 50 years, America’s favorite
POPS conductor, Richard Hayman, continues to entertain sold out audiences with
his brilliant compositions, colorful attire and outstanding guest artists. He is
the principal POPS conductor of the St. Louis and Grand Rapids Symphony
Orchestras, a post he also held with the Detroit and Hartford Symphony
Orchestras, The Calgary Philharmonic and Orchestra London, Canada. His
original compositions are standards in the repertoire of these ensembles as well
as frequently performed selections by many orchestras and bands throughout the
world. For over thirty years, Richard Hayman served as the chief arranger for
the Boston Pops Orchestra during Arthur Fiedler’s tenure, providing special
arrangements for dozens of their hit albums and famous singles. Under John
Williams’ direction, the orchestra continues to program his award-winning
arrangements and orchestrations. Though more involved with the symphony
orchestra circuit, Richard Hayman served as musical director and/or master of
ceremonies for the tour shows of many popular entertainers: Kenny Rogers, Johnny
Cash, Olivia Newton-John, Tom Jones, Englebert Humperdinck, The Carpenters, The
Osmonds, Al Hirt, Andy Williams and many others. Richard Hayman and His
Orchestra have recorded 23 albums and 27 hit singles for Mercury Records, for
which he served as musical director for twelve years. Dozens of his original
compositions have been recorded by various artists all over the world. He has
also arranged and conducted recordings for more that fifty stars of the motion
picture, stage, radio and television world, and has also scored Broadway shows
and numerous motion pictures. In 1960, Richard Hayman was honoured with his own
star in Hollywood’s Walk of Fame. Other awards have included a Certificate of
Recognition from Cosmopolitan magazine for Achievement in Bettering Popular
Music, the Edison Award for Creative Achievement in Recorded Arts from the
