The Florida Springs Institute presents An Evening with Ben Cosgrove at the Florida Springs Welcome Center in High Springs.
Ben Cosgrove is a traveling composer-performer whose music explores themes of landscape, place, and environment. Described by the Boston Globe as “a sonic plein-air painter… [using] his piano as a paintbrush,” Ben has 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 New England National Scenic Trail, the Schmidt Ocean Institute, the US Fish & Wildlife Service, 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). Sound of Boston has described him as “an expert at painting sonic portraits of curious, unexpected places.” His latest album, Topograph, a collection of sixteen new pieces inspired by land-shaping processes around the country, was released in January 2026.
