An established recitalist, Benjamin had the good fortune to be mentored by one of the greatest singers of the twentieth century, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. He earned acclaim for his US recital debut at New York’s Park Avenue Armoury singing all three Schubert Lieder cycles. The New York Times called his performance ‘masterly’ and noted that he ‘rendered the audience breathless.’ He regularly appears in recital at major festivals around the world including the Ravinia, Rheingau, Schleswig-Holstein, Edinburgh International, Oxford Lieder festivals, Heidelberger Frühling, and Klavier-Festival Ruhr; and at leading venues including Wigmore Hall, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, Schubertiade in Hohenems and Schwarzenberg, Paris’s Musée de Louvre and the Phillips Collection in Washington, DC.
Benjamin has also starred in the annual ZDF Advent Concert, a beloved tradition in Germany broadcast on ZDF.
