Benjamin James, une captation de Victor avec un quatuor à cordes !

Incredible! Thanks to a successful first crowdfunding campaign in 24 hours, I will be able to produce 3 music videos to accompany the release of my mini-album! However, many of you didn't have the opportunity to participate in the first campaign as it was already full... I can't believe it. So, to take the ambition even further and louder, I'm launching a second, even crazier campaign: to perform and record a video of the song "Victor" with a subset of the amazing Rainbow Symphony Orchestra. Victor, a powerful song The first time I performed Victor live, I felt such a strong emotion with the audience that after leaving the stage, I found myself overwhelmed with tears. Victor is a deeply personal song, but also sadly universal. It speaks about school bullying, homophobia, and the inability to love freely. Even today, far too many people end their lives because they cannot be true to themselves. When I wrote Victor, I never could have imagined the resonance it carries today. It allowed me to win the Best Lyrics award at Tremplin #77. As a result, it made its way into all the secondary schools in Seine-et-Marne, where music teachers were able to address these profound and delicate subjects. A socially conscious orchestra The Rainbow Symphony Orchestra (RSO) is a LGBTQI+ community symphony orchestra that undertakes projects with a humanistic spirit, emphasizing tolerance and respect for the rights and freedoms of everyone. I have always dreamed that my piano-composed songs would one day be carried by an orchestra. When I discovered RSO performing on stage, I had a strong feeling that I needed to introduce them to the song Victor. And when they were offered the opportunity to play an accompaniment for Victor, they immediately accepted. It's amazing! Goal: Pride 2024 If we succeed in this fundraising campaign, we will provide the means for the song Victor to be widely shared, giving it incredible visibility! The highlights of this project will be the International Day Against LGBTphobia on May 17, 2024, and Pride Month in June 2024! We have 30 days to achieve our goal!
