谢克于90年代初移居洛杉矶投身音乐事业，1996年凭借单曲《几乎无法呼吸》一举跻身流行乐坛顶流行列。这首歌在公告牌百强单曲榜停留时长超过一年。
他在90年代和21世纪初持续推出音乐作品。1999年，百老汇剧作家史蒂文·萨特找到谢克，商讨合作改编自德国戏剧《春之觉醒》的音乐剧。两人最终合作打造了同名音乐剧，2007年在百老汇首演，由丽娅·米歇尔、乔纳森·格罗夫和约翰·加拉赫 Jr. 主演。
《春之觉醒》最终斩获八项托尼奖，包括最佳音乐剧奖项。谢克本人则摘得最佳编曲和最佳原创音乐剧配乐奖。该剧计划于11月重返纽约，开启外百老汇复排演出。

谢克还参与改编了布莱特·伊斯顿·埃利斯的《美国杀人魔》音乐剧，该剧于2016年在百老汇上演；以及2018年在外百老汇上演的《爱丽丝之心》，这是一部重新演绎《爱丽丝梦游仙境》的音乐剧。他同时也坚持发行个人音乐作品。
据《纽约时报》报道，谢克身后留下了父母、妻子诺拉、女儿伊内斯，以及两位同父异母的兄弟姐妹。
“邓肯是一位父亲、丈夫、儿子、兄弟和朋友，”谢克的家人在Instagram上写道，“所有认识他、深爱他的人，都会铭记他带给身边人的敏感细腻、风趣幽默、聪慧睿智与深邃精神。”

Duncan Sheik, the singer behind the ’90s hit “Barely Breathing” and later the Tony Award-winning composer of Broadway’s “Spring Awakening,” has died at 56 years old, his family said Friday.
Sheik died Thursday from cardiac arrest, his mother Suzanne Sheik told The New York Times. Sheik’s family said on Instagram he died on Thursday “surrounded by love.”
His family had previously said on social media on Thursday that Sheik was “receiving medical care” and was in critical but stable condition.

Sheik moved to Los Angeles to work as a musician in the early 1990s, and rose to pop stardom with the 1996 single “Barely Breathing.” The song charted on the Billboard Hot 100 for over a year.
He continued to release music throughout the ’90s and early 2000s. In 1999, Broadway playwright Steven Sater approached Sheik to discuss working together on a musical based on the German play “Spring Awakening.” Their eventual collaboration would lead to a musical of the same name that opened on Broadway in 2007 and starred Lea Michele, Jonathan Groff and John Gallagher Jr.
“Spring Awakening” went on to win eight Tony Awards, including best musical. Sheik won best orchestrations and best original musical score. The show is due to return to New York City with an off-Broadway run in November.

Sheik also worked on a musical adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ “American Psycho,” which bowed on Broadway in 2016, and “Alice by Heart,” a musical retelling of “Alice in Wonderland” that played off-Broadway in 2018. He also continued to release his own music.
Sheik is survived by his parents, his wife Nora, their daughter Ines, and two half-siblings, The New York Times reported.
“Duncan was a father, husband, son, brother, and friend,” his family said on Instagram. “He will be remembered for his sensitivity, wit, inteligence, and depth of spirit he brought to those who knew and loved him.”
