Monder, Ben

Planetarium

The formation of Planetarium began in 2014 when Monder received a grant from The Shifting Foundation to write and record an album. While that project ultimately took a different direction, work on the project continued over the next decade. When the pandemic broke out, efforts were put into high gear as there were few distractions for composing and practicing. It was also during this time that Monder was commissioned to compose the ambitious piece "Ataraxia". After three years of recording, Monder produced his biggest statement as a composer and conceptualist to date. This three-disc set contains extended, elaborate sound poems, but also spontaneous moments of improvisational brilliance.
