I think it’s fair to say that David Beonit is pretty much the face of the entire genre of smooth jazz. His work is absolutely prolific and he has composed for Peanuts, the Weather Channel and played live for multiple US Presidents as well as audiences across the globe. It’s safe to say that whether you know it or not, you have come across David Benoit’s work at some point during your life.
David plays live with a full jazz band to round out his sound. The strings and percussion compliment his gorgeous piano riffs beautifully and the overall sound is so wonderfully pleasing. Watch David play and you’ll be astounded by the speed at which he can produce notes. His hands whizz up and down octaves, but he never misses a note. His skill is astounding for sure.
“Freedom At Midnight” is one of David’s signature songs that never seems to age. Instantly recognizable, but always fresh it’s as if his music drinks from the fountain of youth. Die-hard fans of David Benoit will also want to listen out for his live performances of “Miles After Dar” and “Cast Your Fate to the Wind” which always glisten when he performs them. Overall, you really can’t go wrong with a David Benoit show and I highly recommend you catch him soon!
