Iconic pianist, composer, arranger, producer, film and TV scorer, David Benoit, IS music. He is an extension of what he creates. A Founding Father of Contemporary Jazz, rooted in the tradition of Dave Brubeck and Bill Evans, David - who started playing piano as a young child - is a true trailblazer unbound by categories and rules.
Now, with his new release ‘A Midnight Rendezvous’, David records for the first time with a big band under his own direction and joined by numerous special guests including pianist Jeff Lorber and saxophonist Eric Marienthal. Our conversation covers not only his career, his connection to the music of ‘Peanuts’, and how excited he is to finally have his big band dream become a reality.
