WRITING, PLAYING AND CONDUCTING IN WASHINGTON, DC

William Yanesh is a composer, lyricist, conductor, pianist, arranger, and music director. He can usually be found composing musicals that feature either anthropomorphic birds, or mental health crises in four-part harmony (but rarely both!).

You’ve heard of some of the people he’s worked with! Playwrights Aaron Posner, Lauren Gunderson and John Strand; and perhaps even directors Peter Flynn, Tina Landau, Molly Smith, Joe Calarco and Matthew Gardiner would give him favorable Yelp reviews.
