How many ways can you sing about the letter B? On “Sesame Street,” that question has many furry answers.
“I learned from ‘Sesame Street’ that music is not only incredibly fun, but also an extremely effective narrative and teaching tool,” he added in an email. “On top of that, their songs are the closest thing we have to a shared childhood songbook.” The sonic identity of “Sesame Street” had many creators: Jon Stone, the first head writer and a longtime producer and director, helped conceive the theme song, and the writer Jeff Moss gave us “Rubber Duckie,” “The People in Your Neighborhood” and “I Love Trash.”
With a pencil and a legal pad, he wrote “everywhere,” his son said, including in taxis, sometimes handing his freshly jotted arrangements off to the music coordinator through the window. The first few seasons were definitely trippy; you could blame the era, or the pace. In those early years, “he was in the studio or on set probably 18 hours a day,” Nick Raposo said. “They would just sleep under the mixing board and wake up and start mixing the next day.
“Sesame Street” was “part of my musical development,” said Rodgers, the Chic frontman and Grammy-winning producer. For generations of children watching at home or at school, the message was that even world-famous stars could be accessible. Lang Lang, the star pianist from China, began watching the show at 15, when he first came to the U.S. — precisely because he saw people like Perlman on it. He was invited to appear early in his career, and considered it a crossover coup. “Sesame,” he said, connected classical music to kids’ everyday lives, in a way that stripped it of its highbrow connotation.Being on “Sesame” is simultaneously surreal and deeply comforting.
Harry Styles, the One Direction star, also “had to meet Big Bird,” said Bill Sherman, the show’s music director. “And Will.i.am needed to talk to Grover.” Chance, too, said “Sesame” affects him even now. The Raposo classic “Sing,” he said, “felt like it was a song telling me not only to just be confident and keep going in all ways, but specifically as an artist to this day, it makes me feel like I should be creating.”How does a “Sesame” song come to be? It’s started the same way for the last half-century: with a curriculum.

I’m proud to have been a panelist on a federal team in ‘74 & ‘75 that reviewed proposals, including those from Sesame Street, to recommend funding from H.E.W. My favorites were Sesame Street & Carrascolendas.
