Robert Bennesh (M.M. organ) was born in Sweden in 1986. After several years of elementary music studies he decided to apply for the church music program at the Malmö Academy of Music. In 2009 he received a diploma for employment as an organist within the Church of Sweden. After finishing in Malmö, Robert continued studies at the master programs in church music both at the Royal Danish Conservatory of Music in Copenhagen with Prof. Hans Fagius, and continuing studies in Malmö. Robert also held the positions as assistant organist in the Church of St. Andrews in Malmö and as organ teacher at a local high school. Since Robert heard his first recording of and – even better – his first live concert with Thomas Murray, he has been in awe of his mastery; therefore it is with great pride and hope he begins his studies at the ISM as a student of Prof. Murray.
