Synopsis

Ben Folds is widely regarded as one of the major music influencers of our generation. The Emmy-nominated singer-songwriter-composer has created an enormous body of genre-bending music that includes pop albums with Ben Folds Five, multiple solo albums, and numerous collaborative records. His latest album features a live orchestral performance of his hits captured just before he stepped down as Artistic Advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra (NSO) at the Kennedy Center in DC. He currently tours as a pop artist, while also performing with some of the world’s greatest symphony orchestras.
