Saxophone · Singapore
Picked up the saxophone at age 7. Now with 26 years of professional performance, Benson has played for heads of state, royalty and UN Secretary-Generals — and equally at charity shows, jazz festivals and the occasional smoke-filled pub. His music has taken him across Asia and beyond, from Ritz-Carlton residencies to concerts for 12,000+ audiences. He performs, records and teaches — not necessarily in that order.
