William Sheller (b. July 9 1946) is a French classical composer and singer.
Biography William Sheller was born William Hand in Paris.
He left school at 16 to study composition with teacher Yves Margat
(himself a student of Gabriel Fauré) and later harmony, fugue and
counterpoint at the Paris Conservatoire. He turned to pop music after
hearing the Beatles. Since then, he has had a successful career both as a
classical composer and as a pop singer. His works often mix both genres.
For example, some of his songs include carefully crafted orchestral
passages (the Baroque introduction to Le Nouveau Monde) as well as
instruments that are seldom found in pop music (such as a horn in Les
Miroirs dans la Boue and a clarinet in Fier et Fou de Vous). On the other
hand, his Lux Aeterna is written for orchestra, choir and rock band. He has
toured several times with transcriptions of his songs for voice and orches
