Karel Vlach se svým orchestrem/Antonín Borovicka/Jirí Voldán

Jiří Antonín Benda, also Georg Anton Benda (30 June 1722 – 6 November 1795), was a Bohemian kapellmeister, violinist and composer of the classical period.

Born in Old Benatek (today Benátky nad Jizerou), Bohemia, he studied at the Piarist Gymnasium (grammar school) in Kosmanos and at the Jesuit Gymnasium in Gitschin from 1735 to 1742. Benda was 19 when Frederick the Great bestowed upon him in 1741 the position of second violinist in the chapel of Berlin. The following year Benda was summoned to Potsdam as a composer and arranger for his older brother Franz, himself an illustrious composer and violinist. Seven years later, in 1749, he entered the service of the Duke of Gotha as Kapellmeister, where he constantly cultivated his talents for composition, specializing in religious music.
