Gabriel Kahane discusses his arranging approach for his own vast and varied catalog as well as for other artists, writing orchestrally for piano accompaniment, and what it's like to hear a jazz musician interpret one of his songs.Gabriel Kahane's newest recording is Elevator Songs, a collaboration with the vocal music ensemble Roomful of Teeth.
