Benjamin Britten

Uit HitStory, de popencyclopedie van School of Rock · Artiest

Benjamin Britten was een Engelse componist, dirigent en pianist en een centrale figuur in de Britse muziek van de twintigste eeuw. Hij werd in 1913 geboren in het vissersstadje Lowestoft in Suffolk, op de feestdag van Sint Cecilia, de patrones van de muziek. Hij studeerde aan het Royal College of Music in Londen en privé bij Frank Bridge. Zijn eerste aandacht kreeg hij in 1934 met het a-cappellawerk A Boy Was Born. Met de première van de opera Peter Grimes in 1945 werd hij internationaal beroemd.

Muziek en doorbraak

In de dertig jaar daarna schreef hij veertien opera's meer, naast orkest, koor, solozang, kamermuziek en filmmuziek. Bekende werken zijn het War Requiem uit 1962 en The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, een orkeststuk dat de instrumenten één voor één voorstelt. Hij schreef graag voor kinderen en amateurs, bijvoorbeeld de opera Noye's Fludde, de Missa Brevis en de liedbundel Friday Afternoons, en hij componeerde vaak met bepaalde uitvoerders in gedachte. Zijn belangrijkste muze was zijn levens en werkpartner, de tenor Peter Pears. Samen met Pears en Eric Crozier richtte hij in 1948 het Aldeburgh Festival op, en in 1967 liet hij de concertzaal Snape Maltings maken. In 1976 werd hij de eerste componist die een adellijke titel voor het leven kreeg, een life peerage, kort voor zijn dood op zijn drieënzestigste.

Invloed

Britten bracht de opera en de koorzang in Engeland weer op een hoog niveau en liet zien dat serieuze muziek ook voor kinderen en amateurs kan worden geschreven. Zijn werk is daardoor tot op heden in de concertzaal en in het onderwijs te horen.
