Bio

Ben Rosen is a Philadelphia-based pianist, bass guitarist, improviser and composer. A graduate of the Peabody Institute where he studied composition with Michael Hersch, he continues to use his Classical training to compose notated music, though with an increasing interest in writing for improvisers that reflects his work as a performer. Initially studying Classical piano with Marcantonio Barone, he has spent years developing a voice as an improviser in diverse settings, including with Surface Destroyer (duo with trumpeter Daniel Levine), Siris JuJu (with members of the Sun Ra Arkestra), and Nick Millevoi’s Desertion Trio.
