About Me

It’s about music.   Me?  I’m Eric Benjamin.  Working as a conductor/composer/arranger/educator 

Much of the music on this site was written to fill a need for a specific

program for an orchestra, band, chorus. Some on commission, some to fill

in on a program when I couldn’t quite find just the thing to:

– catch the attention of the audience

– keep players happy

– be playable on minimal rehearsal time (mostly)

I like to combine the pragmatic – modest technical difficulty, easily

rehearsed – with the visionary. Music that is accessible and immediately

appealing but with an element of the unexpected. 

So…it’s all tried and true.   Hope you enjoy looking and listening.
