Mini Biography

Composer, writer and conductor Robert Wilson Stringer, a high-school graduate, took his music education in personal research. A protégé of Herbert Stothart, he was a devotee from the music of Igor Stravinsky. While he was composing music for the concert hall, he was called chief from the music-editing section at Metro Goldwyn Mayer. At MGM, Stothart provided Stringer the chance to compose the musical placing (“The Spell”, patterned by Stringer following the “Dance from the Nuns” from Stravinsky’s “Petrouchka”, orchestrated by Murray Cutter and executed by Stothart) for the well-known picture in “The Wizard of Oz” where Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow as well as the Tin Woodman dance through a poppy field to the Emerald Town. Stringer also composed music for the Broadway revue “New Encounters of 1956”, radio ratings for “Broadway Is definitely My Defeat” and “Studio room One”, and music for commercial films and advertisements. Becoming a member of ASCAP in 1962, his popular-music compositions consist of “Theme from ‘The Nurses'”.
