FENWICK SMITH

Fenwick Smith’s Boston-based performing career began in 1975 when he joined the contemporary-music ensemble Boston Musica Viva, and the New England Woodwind Quintet. After winning his BSO audition in 1978 he has continued active participation in recitals, radio broadcasts, chamber music performances, and teaching. He retired from the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 2006, after a distinguished 28-year career as second flute. As a concerto soloist Fenwick Smith introduced to Boston audiences Lukas Foss’s Renaissance Concerto and concertos of John Harbison and Christopher Rouse. He has taught at the New England Conservatory since 1976, joined the Boston Chamber Music Society in 1983, and has enjoyed a long and fruitful collaboration with the area’s finest chamber-music musicians. His discography includes première recordings of works by Cage, Copland, Dahl, Foote, Gaubert, Ginastera, Harbison, Koechlin, Pinkham, Reinecke, Rorem, Schoenberg, Schulhoff, and Schuller.
