Newton Hart Wayland (November 5, 1940 – September 5, 2013) was an American orchestral conductor, arranger, composer and keyboardist. The product of an elite musical education, Wayland was known for his dedication to performing for the broadest possible audience.[1]
During a professional musical career that began in 1963, Wayland appeared as a conductor with symphony orchestras across the United States. His programming drew from a background that included Symphonic, Operatic, Chamber Music, Jazz and Musical Comedy. Wayland's symphonic arrangements were performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra and recorded with the Boston Pops.
In 1978, Wayland was one of a select handful of people in consideration to succeed the longtime Boston Pops Conductor, Arthur Fieldler.[2][3][4]
Wayland had a long association with WGBH/PBS television as a musical director and composer for television programs. He composed the “Come on and ZOOM” theme song for the Emmy Award winning children's show, ZOOM.[5]
