About
For your Sunday afternoon delight, a wonderful programme for organ and violin with Simon Leach and Ben Holland.
Simon Leach graduated from the Royal Northern College of Music in 1992. An RNCM travel bursary enabled him to travel to Paris to receive some coaching on the interpretation of the compositions of Naji Hakim with the composer. Subsequently, he was appointed organ scholar at the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.
Simon has performed with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra (including Austria and Germany tour), The Hallé, Manchester Camerata, Northern Sinfonia, London Festival Orchestra and the Northern Chamber Orchestra and given solo organ recitals in many of Great Britain's Cathedrals and Concert Halls including Westminster, Newcastle, Coventry, Manchester, Chester Cathedrals and the Reid Concert Hall, Edinburgh.
Ben Holland studied at the Royal Academy of Music with Manoug Parikian and was subsequently a prize winner at the Royal Northern College of Music, where he studied with Yossi Zivoni. He is currently a member of virtuoso ensemble I Musicanti and of the Victoria String Quartet whose acclaimed début concert took place in 2017.
As an experienced orchestral leader, Ben has guest-led many of the UK's major orchestras, including the Hallé, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, Northern Sinfonia, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Scottish Ensemble, Orchestra of Opera North and BBC Philharmonic.
