Shakeup In The Music Department!

The new GENERAL HOSPITAL opening that debuted this week isn’t the only change in the soap’s music department. Executive producer Frank Valentini announced via Twitter that Paul Glass — who served as the musical director on ONE LIFE TO LIVE from 1999 until the show’s finale — has joined the GH family. A spokesperson for ABC confirms that multiple Emmy winner RC Cates — pictured above with Steve Burton (Jason) — is out after more than 20 years as GH’s music supervisor. In addition to working on the mothership, Cates helmed the music departments at GENERAL HOSPITAL: NIGHT SHIFT and PORT CHARLES.

As for the new truncated credits that debuted earlier this week, a show rep says “The opening is a work in progress. There’s a brand new one in the works, which you’ll see in good time.”
