Charlotte Benesch

Charlotte Benesch first fell in love with the performing arts at age five when she started piano lessons in Tunisia. Born and raised with a French mother in a U.S. Foreign Service family, Charlotte grew up on five different continents. Thus, from her earliest years, she understood what it meant to be a global citizen. Incorporating exotic instrumentation, rhythm, and languages into her music, Charlotte has created a unique niche for herself in the genre of World Music/Jazz/Pop. While attending the British Academy of Performing Arts, Charlotte performed with lead roles in various musicals, including Epiphany, Quilt, and Children of Eden at the Source Theater in Washington D.C. She recorded the hit song "Quem Sabe um Dia" at the age of 16. "Quem Sabe um Dia" was featured as a reoccurring song on the hit television show, Malhação, on the O Globo Network, the largest network in Brazil. The single aired on Rio de Janeiro Top 40 radio stations and was placed on the "Malhação Nacional" album
