An Evening of Music with Ben Cosgrove at Sterling College

Ben Cosgrove at Sterling College

Join us for an unforgettable evening with the talented musician Ben Cosgrove at Sterling College.

Ben Cosgrove is a traveling composer-performer whose music explores themes of landscape, place, and environment. Described by the as “a sonic plein-air painter… [using] his piano as a paintbrush,” Ben has performed in every U.S. state except for Delaware, collaborated with groups ranging from rock bands to research scientists, contributed music to several radio and film projects (including the recent Ken Burns documentary The American Buffalo), and held residencies and fellowships with institutions including NASA, the National Park Service, the National Forest Service, Harvard University, Middlebury College, the Schmidt Ocean Institute, and the Sitka Center for Art & Ecology.

Ben's music has been called "beautiful and fascinating" (The Maine Edge), "deeply impressive" (Independent Clauses), and "immediately evocative and fully arresting... brim[ming] with technical mastery and emotional capital" (Seven Days). His latest record, , a collection of improvisation-based music that reflects upon the relationship between movement and place, was named one of the top albums of 2023 by Sound of Boston, who in their review described Ben as "a master at painting sonic portraits of curious, unexpected places."
