Young Kiwi Pianist to Wow Kapiti Audience
Mulled Wine Concerts Presents BENJAMIN CARTER
A genuine Kiwi home-grown talent, Ben Carter hails from Lower Hutt and
comes from a very musical family – both his parents play in the New Zealand
Symphony Orchestra! Perhaps inevitably, Ben has grown up with music and
has developed his own special talent, which will be on display at the Memorial
Hall in Paekakariki on Sunday 23 July when he will put on a concert for Mary
Gow's Mulled Wine Concerts organisation. Kapiti audiences will get a chance
to see a stunning young musician at the very start of what promises to be a
stellar career.

To make the concert even more exciting, audiences will hear
concert-level performances on two instruments - piano and cello - as Ben
presents masterpieces by Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Prokofiev and Scriabin.
Ben has played piano, cello and his surprise instrument, the ukelele from a
young age. He is a first-year student at Victoria University School of Music
where he is concentrating on studying piano under the guidance of Professor
Jian Liu.

He has been successful in competitions at the regional and national
level – last year he won the National Performing Arts Award, playing the cello.
He will shortly be off to Zhuhai, China as the New Zealand entry for the 50th
International Mozart Competition for young musicians.
Although young, Ben does not lack performing experience – he has appeared
as a soloist with the NZSO at their 75th anniversay celebrations, and also with
musicians from the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. He was Principal Cellist
of the NZSO National Youth Orchestra in 2021 and Principal Cellist of the NZ
Secondary Schools Symphony Orchestra 2001-2002. He recently presented
a Mozart Piano Concerto as a soloist with the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra.
A versatile young musician such as Benjamin Carter does not come along
very often and Mulled Wine Concerts is proud to present a performance that
will be sure to be well attended and talked about for a very long time.

Mulled Wine Concerts presents a cello and piano recital by Benjamin Carter at 2:30
