Listen To Classical-Flavoured Music By Chester Bennington’s Son, Jaime

Chester Bennington’s widow, Talinda, has shared music by her late husband’s oldest son, Jaime.

Talinda posted to Twitter: “Our son Jaime is as talented as his father @ChesterBe . Here's a bit of his original work. #legacy”

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 20^th century. Born in St Petersburg, Russia in 1906, he went on to achieve international acclaim, writing 15 full symphonies and many other celebrated arrangements.

These shouldn’t be taken as entirely indicative of Jaime’s musical direction, going forward, calling them as he does on his blog “an experiment” in moving away from previous forms and harmonies. You can follow Jaime’s future recordings via his Twitter account, and find previous work on his Soundcloud page.
