Benjamin began learning the piano at 8 years of age and continued piano lessons until he was 18. He is also trained to play the organ and has been playing for many congregations in church for over 4 years. He loved playing for the children in Primary and enjoyed livening up those primary songs with extra notes and flair to keep the children on the edge of their chairs excited to sing.
Ben is the eldest of 9 children. The last 4 of his brothers and sisters have been adopted into his family from China. With Grandparents from Italy and a mother-in-law who is British I think that Ben has learned to love and embrace his love of different cultures in his life through music. You can hear his own interpretation of these wonderful cultures in the songs I posted today from Dublin's Shores to The Great Wall. Enjoy!
