jazzweek.com • Oct. 19, 2005 JazzWeek 9 Artist Q&A: David Benoit

ianist David Benoit’s interest in jazz can be traced all the way back Pto the original airing of A Char- lie Brown Christmas with that landmark Vince Guaraldi soundtrack. Benoit was inspired by Guaraldi to take les- sons and went on to a successful career in Contemporary and Straight-ahead jazz. Through a twist of fate, Benoit has now ended up in the music chair of the Peanuts TV franchise and he’s also been involved in other Guaraldi-centric projects. The latest is 40 Years, A Char- lie Brown Christmas which Benoit produced, arranged and played on. He’s also joined by such high proﬁle guests as Dave Koz, Chaka Khan and Vanes- sa Williams. JazzWeek caught up with Benoit to get the lowdown on his re- make of one the great Christmas al- davidbenoit.com David Benoit’s early interest in jazz came from the Vince Guaraldi Peanuts bums of all time and other things. music of which he’s come a steward. –Tad Hendrickson

little bit. I covered “Linus And Lucy” in 1985. At that time I got the attention of Lee Mendelson, who is the producer of all the Charlie Brown televi- sion shows. In ’89 I did the music for This Is America Charlie Brown, which also had a few other composers that were quite accomplished – Wynton Marsa- lis, Dave Grusin, George Winston and some others. For some reason he and I clicked, and then the next step was introducing me to Charles Schultz. So he introduced me to Sparky, which is what he wanted his friends to call him, then I became the official music guy for the TV shows. I’ve scored about 12 network specials. Some have been specials and some have been actual episodes. I’d have to look at my discography. Then my old label [GRP] did an all-star album commemorating the 40th anniversary of the comic strip. I was just one of the artists for that. Eight years later we had the 50 year anniversary, and I did a record with Tommy LiPuma producing this time. It was a pretty straightfor- ward trio recording. How did the new one come about? Lee called me a few years ago and said that he’d like to do another one. [laughs] I was wonder- ing how I was going to do another record of Vince Guaraldi music. I do the music every night in my show, but this was a challenge and a real honor. It was the first time that he asked me to produce it. How is that different? It gave me a chance to think outside the box. I was able to bring in a lot of different talents from different areas of contemporary jazz. I sent them all demos of how I wanted things to be and then they put their magic on it. And that’s how it came to be. The short story. The Peanuts children are so full fledged and yet the adults are one-dimensional. And the Guaraldi music is for the children. What makes it such a good fit? The music had to be as sophisticated and hip as the kids were. If it was the same old cartoon music, I don’t know if the cartoon would have been successful. Vince is an amazing guy. The more I get into his music the more frustrated I become. Because he had a way. He was a jazz pianist – he probably had the same issues that I do, he’s a jazz pianist who likes to write a simple melody. The most frustrating part is how he could write a simple little melody. I would think to myself: “I can do that.” I’ve written a lot of compositions for the Peanuts over the years and I’ve never gotten continued ... jazzweek.com • Oct. 19, 2005 JazzWeek 11 Artist Q&A: David Benoit (continued)

close to doing what Vince did. He loved children and he had this amazing way of writing. I like to think that we’d be friends if he was still alive. Of course, I wouldn’t have this gig if he was. I have an affinity for the music and have such respect for the way he was able to write. He lived in a little world, like me, where he was a bebop- per, but he liked to write these melodies for children. He has the same issue in his day that some of us smooth jazz or contempary jazz artists have now. He was one able to live in both worlds quite comfortably. I think an important reason for his success was the utter simplicity of what he wrote. There is no one in the world that matched the music to the kids like he did. With the new record, where all the musicians you called into it? All the instrumentalists I called were into it. Some the singers didn’t know Guaraldi’s work. They knew the Peanuts, but they didn’t know about Vince. Some had other issues, such as they were doing their own Christmas album or they couldn’t work out the scheduling or were under contract. But there wasn’t a single negative re- sponse. How did it work out? We did all the tracking live, which is the way I like to do it, but the vocalists, through the process of the internet and Protools, we were able to put Rocky Schenck/davidbenoit.com their track on. Chaka Khan lives in L.A. and she did her track live. That was her request: she wanted to play with the guys. What are your hopes for this record? I guess I wanted to reach out to a slightly different audience, a larger demo- graphic, with the music of Vince Guaraldi. And to show people that this music is timeless. For me, my first record for Concord was of my orchestra and symphonic works, which is very different thing for me. So I kind of felt that I had done my art and now wanted to give the label something with good sales, JW something that will reach out to some people.
