Last night, Tony winner and BMI composer Maury Yeston (Nine, Titanic, Grand Hotel) was celebrated with a star-studded musical tribute at the National Arts Club in New York City. Honored at the Encompass Gala with the Sheldon Harnick Award for Creative Excellence, Yeston received his prize from Harnick himself. Yeston was an esteemed teacher and moderator of the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop for more than twenty years.
