Accolades ______________________________________________________________________________
“Cues have never been so precise nor phrasing so sensitive.” –Kokomo Tribune
“He was more than a conductor—he also was a dancer, an actor, an energizer.” –The Indianapolis News
“Del Vecchio is given to an especially energetic style . . . reminiscent of Maxim Shostakovich. The total performance was . . . very Mozart and very effective.” –Bloomington Herald Telephone
“A rare treat. Del Vecchio drew remarkable disciplined response from the musicians, his own body language demonstrating a depth of feeling for the music.” –Kokomo Tribune
“Mr. Del Vecchio has a pleasing personality and gets along well both with his colleagues and with lay persons.” –Charles H. Webb, Dean, Indiana University School of Music
“Mr. Del Vecchio must be highly recommended for his personal qualities as well. He is not only hard working and dedicated, spirited and of an incredible energy and endurance, he is also very patient and reasonable, treats people well and is the most loyal person I have ever had the good fortune to meet.” –Wolfgang Vacano, Indiana University School of Music
“Mr. Del Vecchio has demonstrated an ability to get the most from available talent and at the same time serve as a stimulus to those aspiring to greater accomplishments.” –Joseph B Davis, M.D., F.A.C.S., Board of Trustees, Marion Philharmonic Orchestra
“He is a gifted teacher and conductor who brings the highest levels of professionalism to all of his endeavors.” –Stuart Green, Chairman, Liberal Studies Division, Indiana University at Kokomo
“Benjamin Del Vecchio knows how to coax musicians and inspire them to play beyond their ability. As a performer, his appearance and demeanor before the audiences is brilliant. . . . audiences love his wit. . . . a rare find among conductors. He has few equals. I recommend him highly and without reservation.” –Leonard Cheatham, Principal Cellist, Hendricks Symphony Orchestra, President, Hendricks Symphonic Society
“Through his gentle manner he has a persuasive power to draw from instrumentalists what seems at times impossible.” –Mrs. David M. Davisson, President, Board of Directors, Philharmonic Orchestra of Indianapolis
