Ben has always been curious about the many ways music brings people together. His love for song took root around the campfire when he was just a child, and it blossomed as he went on to lead sing-alongs at synagogues, summer camps, and schools. Today, Ben channels his passion for inquiry into leading Socratic study groups for teens and adults. His devotion to connection, collaboration, and creativity is at the heart of his work with the Iris Music Project.
