Christian Benda descends from a long line of distinguished musicians dating back to 1686. He appears worldwide with orchestras including the Prague Symphony, Shanghai Philharmonic, Suisse Romande, Orquestra Sinfônica do Estado de São Paulo, Orchestra della Toscana, Polish National Opera, Budapest Concert Orchestra MÁV, Cyprus State, Moscow Virtuosi, Münster Philharmonic and the Ulster Orchestra, at festivals including Schwetzingen, Luxemburg, Cité de la musique Paris, Prague Spring, George Enescu Bucharest, Hong Kong Arts, Klangbogen Wien, and the Menuhin Festival in Switzerland. He is First Guest Conductor of the Turin Philharmonic Orchestra and Chief Conductor of the Prague Sinfonia Orchestra with which he has recorded numerous standard classical works, as well as the compositions of his ancestors and is currently recording Rossini’s complete overtures. Singers such as Fleming, Hendricks, Studer, and Estes have appeared under his baton. In collaboration with the Vienna State Opera he has devised a new introduction to opera for the general public and young people: High-Lights and Micro-Opera, based on Goethe’s colour theory, with the participation of narrator and dancers.
