Asher Denburg is a passionate musician and talented instrumentalist. A modern-day musical Renaissance man, he has played some of America’s most prestigious performing arts venues, collaborated with luminaries from Broadway and the Metropolitan Opera, and has been a man of the theatre for as long as he can remember. ​​

Recently, Asher made his Broadway debut as composer and music director for Jeff Ross: Take A Banana For The Ride; the show was taped for Netflix, and will be released at a date to be announced. Before that, Asher traveled as a keyboard player with the First National Tour of A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical, and held residencies at Green Room 42 (At This Performance; Pretty, Witty, & Gay Cabaret), Chelsea Music Hall (Sweet! with Seth Herzog), and The Box (Never Sleep Alone). ​

As music director, he led the national tours of Spamilton and Cirque Music Holiday Spectacular.

Asher has helmed summer seasons at Wagon Wheel (Legally Blonde, The Addams Family), Arrow Rock Lyceum (Cinderella, All Shook Up, 9 to 5), and more. He was also the music supervisor for Never Sleep Alone with Virgin Voyages, as well as the line's inaugural house pianist.​

A prolific orchestrator and budding composer, Asher's work has been featured with the Boston Pops, and the Chicago Symphony at multiple editions of the Ravinia Festival. His charts have been heard Off-Broadway and all throughout New York's cabaret scene; he also co-orchestrated Bachelors of Broadway with renowned arranger David Snyder.​
