Show notes

Legendary composer and arranger Dr. Benjamin Wright joins Tank & J. Valentine for a masterclass in orchestration, arrangement, and musical storytelling. From shaping iconic R&B records to scoring timeless moments, Benjamin breaks down how strings, horns, and live instrumentation elevate a song from great to unforgettable. We get into working with powerhouse vocalists, writing for emotion, and the discipline behind arranging music that still resonates decades later.
