Ben Gailer and the Auckland Jazz Orchestra are proud to present Monolith, a menagerie of jazz orchestra works composed and arranged by Gailer.
​
Ben's compositions are layered and symphonic, with dense harmonies and contrapuntal textures complimenting sweeping melodies and soaring solos. His voice as a jazz pianist is also intrinsic to the character of his music.
​
Monolith is available now for your listening pleasure.
