Benjamin Lees
Benjamin Lees (January 8, 1924 – May 31, 2010) was an American composer of art music.
==Early life==
Lees was born Benjamin George Lisniansky in Harbin, China, of Russian-Jewish descent.〔(Obituary in The Guardian )〕〔(Benjamin Lees: Composer who eschewed modernism in favour of a gritty, muscular clarity )〕 He began piano lessons at 5 with Kiva Ihil Rodetsky of San Francisco〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Benjamin Lees Biography )〕 and started composing as a teenager.
After serving in the United States military, Lees studied composition under Halsey Stevens, as well as with Kalitz and Ingolf Dahl, at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, California. Composer George Antheil, impressed by Lees' compositions, offered further tutelage; this period lasted four years, at the end of which Lees won a Fromm Foundation Award.
The receipt of a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1954 allowed him to live in Europe, realizing his goal of developing his individual style away from current fashions in the American art music scene and resulting in a number of mature and impressive works.〔 Returning to the United States in 1961, he divided his time between composition and teaching at several institutions. These included the Peabody Conservatory (1962–64, 1966–68), Queens College (1964–66), the Manhattan School of Music (1972–74), and the Juilliard School (1976–77).〔O'Loughlin, ''New Grove (2001)'', 14:467.〕
