Jaime Bennington’s music is, at the moment, relaxed piano fare that’d feel at home on a classical music radio station. Jaime himself states, on his blog, that these pieces are “fuelled by my love for the incredible Dimitri (sic) Shostakovich”.
Dmitri Shostakovich, who died in 1975 (21 years before the 21-year-old Jaime was born), is regarded as one of the preeminent composers of the 20th century. Born in St Petersburg, Russia in 1906, he went on to achieve international acclaim, writing 15 full symphonies and many other celebrated arrangements.
