Orchestral Stories
David Benoit
David Benoit is one of the most accomplished pianists, composers and producers in the contemporary jazz arena. But now, with Orchestral Stories, his musical universe has expanded to include this incredible offering of symphonic/orchestral pieces all woven together by the brilliance only this musical genius can do.
“Most of my fans know me for my contribution to the smooth jazz format. Over the years, within that context, I have experimented with fusing orchestral sounds, R&B grooves, and melodic piano lines. Orchestral Stories best represents how I have evolved as a pianist, composer and conductor. Please sit back and enjoy this musical journey…as I believe Orchestral Stories is music without boundaries.” --DAVID BENOIT
Features special guests DAVE KOZ and RICK BRAUN, as well as THE CZECH NATIONAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA and members of THE ASIA AMERICA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
