Britten Violin Concerto, Op. 15
Brahms Symphony No. 4 in E Minor, Op. 98
A former student of Stephen Larsen and Vesa-Matti Leppänen, Benjamin made the leap overseas in 2007. He won prizes internationally before landing a permanent position with the legendary Vienna Philharmonic. Now back on home soil, he performs the Britten Violin Concerto.
Brahms’ Fourth Symphony is one of his best-loved. Tom Service, writing for The Guardian, recognised the “cathartic power” of this “despairing, troubling and astonishing symphony.”
Gemma New’s role as the NZSO’s Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor is kindly supported by the NZSO Foundation – which is made possible by the extraordinary generosity of the Orchestra’s donors.
