Info for Esteban Benzecry: Orchestral Works

French-Argentinian composer Esteban Benzecry has built up a distinctive body of work, from symphonies to works for solo piano. He stands as a worthy successor to such masters as Ginastera, Villa-Lobos and Chávez, with music that is suffused with ‘imaginary folklore’, flashes of color, fieriness and reverie. The autobiographical Violin Concerto draws on South American folk motifs and rhythms, whereas in Ciclo de canciones he explores the meeting of two cultures, Argentinian and Japanese. The breathtaking dialogues between soloist and orchestra in the Clarinet Concerto recall Andean and pre-Hispanic times.

At the age of 18 he made his debut as a conductor. A winner of numerous international competitions, he was given the opportunity to conduct the Orchestra Boréal in Paris by Jean-Sébastien Béreau, a former student of Olivier Messiaen.

He regularly works with the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional and Orquesta Filarmónica de Buenos Aires del Teatro Colón in Argentina among others. In Europe he has appeared with the Tonkunstler Orchestra at the Vienna Musikverein, Budapest, Slovak, and Sofia Philharmonic Orchestras, Wiener Concert-Verein and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London. In 2017 he was invited by Teatro Colón to work on an international production of Richard Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier. He made his German debut with the Jaener Philharmonic Orchestra in 2019, and was invited to work with the Göttinger Symphony Orchestra in 2020. He has been a member of the jury at the Summa Cum Laude International Youth Music Festival orchestral competition since 2019, and has been invited by Gustavo Dudamel to work with the Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar.
