Being Sammy Timberg’s daughter, you may find it hard to imagine why I never really understood the depths of my Dad’s career during his lifetime. His interests always focused on composing new music, looking ahead. He merely alluded to past accomplishments. Rarely did he discuss his early musical contributions for cartoons or Broadway shows.

In an effort to play the newly discovered music and share it with audiences, presentations were developed to perform it in several venues and it was more than enthusiastically received. These include a jazz and classical concert, a CD, now out, with more CD’s envisioned, nightclub engagements, an original Broadway show, still in the development stage, a documentary and an upcoming non-profit organization. We performed at cabarets, universities and corporate events. Sammy Timberg was offered tributes to his music through shows developed at Lincoln Center and The World Animation Celebration.

So meander down the by-gone era, timbergalley.com. Follow the winding paths of delightfully delectable cartoon music wizardry. Wander through the way-laid compositions from the early Broadway shows and still unpublished compositions. Enjoy, discover and explore, as I have, and see why I decided to put Back Street (the street of forgotten scores, often lost behind cartoon sound tracks) back on Main Street where they belong.
