The homepage previews the most recent news articles and reviews, along with glimpses into other branches of the site. There are related social media links at the top of the page and a search bar at the bottom. Both the News tab and Reviews tab present articles in reverse chronological order and offer a “monthly archives” list on the right. The Biography page includes the highlights of Hamlisch’s career, a list of his awards divided by type and organized for the most part in reverse chronological order, lists of movies he scored and musicals he composed (both lists in chronological order), and a collection of links on the left side of the page to other sites dedicated to the composer. Both the title and image for a film lead to its Internet Movie Database page, and the title and image for a musical lead to its page on Wikipedia. The Multimedia page has embedded audio clips and videos of Hamlisch’s music, as well as links to additional YouTube videos. Finally, the Links tab provides access to other resources to find and buy his books, recordings, and sheet music.
