Among the nominated works is Serero's new musical piece “SCARFACE, The Al Capone Musical,” which he arranged, produced, and starred as Al Capone. He took Jazz standards, arranged them in hip-hop, and took Pop standards to turn them into jazz while adding operatic and musical theater elements. The musical is set to Off-Broadway premiere in 2022. The Original Cast Album Recording includes high profiles such as Malou Beauvoir, Lisa Bouchelle, Lisa Monde, Marcy Richardson.


“Anne Frank, a Musical," written by Jean-Pierre Hadida, which David Serero directed and produced the U.S Premiere of 2019, was a smash hit, and Serero won the 2020 BroadwayWorld Award for Best Performer and Best Producer of a Musical. Scheduled to continue in March 2020 Off-Broadway, the musical is now postponed to be re-opened in March 2022. Serero, who starred as Otto Frank, produced the Original Cast Recording with cast members of the staged performances such as Kristyn Vario, Lisa Monde during the pandemic.

These six nominations are the first For Your Consideration nominations at the Grammys for David Serero, who has been a member of the Recording Academy since 2018. "While I was filming a new movie on the other side of the world, in Madagascar, I was overwhelmed by the news. Though I'm more of a "stage guy," these nominations are giving me so much hope for more recordings to be made, especially for dramatic works. So to have my work acknowledged by the Academy, especially among important colleagues, is already a strong victory for me. God is so good!"


The First round of Voting is open until November 5th, 2021. The final results will be on the 64th Grammy Awards Telecast of January 31st, 2022, live on CBS.
