London Philharmonic gives composer a job

The LPO have installed Sir George Benjamin as composer in residence.

From September 2025, Benjamin will participate in rehearsals and performances of his music and will conduct an LPO concert featuring one of his compositions. He will also serve as mentor to the five participants selected each year for the LPO Young Composers programme, which aims to support the progression of talented orchestral composers.

Benjamin, 64, lives in central London and is known chiefly for two operas – Written on Skin (2009) and Lessons in Love and Violence (2015).
