    Fenwick Smith to resign from BSO represented by RPR / CopyWriting & Creative Services For Immediate Release 54 Beach Street ™ Woburn, MA 01801 (781) 937-0389 [email protected] GBFA co-founder Fenwick Smith resigns from Boston Symphony Orchestra— Accomplished flutist to take more active role in GBFA Woburn, MA – Thursday, December 15, 2005 — Fenwick Smith, flute: Myra and Robert Kraft chair, endowed in perpetuity in 1981. Fenwick Smith took his first flute lessons in the public schools of Medford, Massachusetts. Largely self-taught until his senior year in high school, he was encouraged by Elinor Preble and Doriot Anthony Dwyer to apply to the Eastman School of Music, where he studied with Joseph Mariano, graduating in 1972. Smith showed an early interest in things mechanical. By the age of sixteen he was working as a part-time milling machine operator for a small manufacturing firm. The following summer, Verne Q. Powell Flutes Inc., the leading American flute maker, offered him employment, which continued, mostly on a part-time, work-at-home basis, for the next twelve years. During this time he built about one hundred Powell flutes, including the instrument he has played during his entire professional career. After a summer at the Tanglewood Music Center, Smith moved to West Berlin, where he promptly became an active free-lancer, taught at Schiller College, and came under the salutary influence of James Galway. He lived in Germany for three years, with forays to Greece and to Paris, where he auditioned for the French Ministry of Cultural Affairs. In 1975, soon after Smith had made plans to return to Boston, the Ministry offered him the position of principal flute in the Regional Orchestra of Toulouse.

  • The Awesome Marianne Gedigian Interview by Wendy Stern
    February 2010 The Awesome Marianne Gedigian Interview by Wendy Stern hrough mutual friends and colleagues, Marianne Gedigian was described to me as awesome, energetic, dynamic, creative, and fearless. TAfter interviewing her, I would add to that list: artistic, articulate, and inspiring. Our exchange took place via email in early January 2010. WENDY STERN: I suspect a few people might have been surprised at your decision to accept a faculty position in Texas after serv- ing as former acting principal flute of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Boston Pops Orchestra, and Pittsburgh Symphony. Specifically, in a time when so many aspiring flutists are vying for so few positions in major orchestras, I would love to hear your views on music careers beyond that of the orchestra. Thinking about music as an art form versus music as a job, how have these had an impact on your artistic and career-based decisions? MARIANNE GEDIGIAN: Certainly music has been my career or job, but mostly it has been a way of life. I have always taken opportunities as they come, and done my best to make the most of them. Regretting yesterday or pining for something tomorrow doesn’t make today better for me. When students are struggling to figure out how they will have a career in such a competi- tive field, I urge them to find the ways that music will fulfill them individually. For each person, this will be a different path. While there are those students who have a vision of orchestral playing, there are others that would be equally satisfied to have a private studio, a chamber music group, be involved in the area flute club, and play with a regional wind ensemble or In Concert orchestra.

Johannes Brahms Vienna acted as a cultural magnet for composers of the 18th and 19th centuries. Juhannes Brahms was one of many who settled there, and due to proximity with Budapest, became influenced by Hungarian music. Brahms' seminal performing experience had been as piano accompanist for the famous Hungarian violinist, Eduard Remenyi (1830-1898), on tour during the 1852-53 season.

  • Flutists' Family Tree : in Search of the American Flute School / by Demetra
    FLUTISTS’ FAMILY TREE: IN SEARCH OF THE AMERICAN FLUTE SCHOOL DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Demetra Baferos Fair, M.M. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Adviser Approved by Professor Lois Rosow Professor Christopher Weait Adviser School of Music Copyright by Demetra Baferos Fair 2003 ABSTRACT For decades, American flutists have sought to identify specific traits that define their playing as a whole. While the “French School” has been characterized by a preoccupation with tone, a standard repertoire, and set of teaching materials written by Paris Conservatoire professors, no such definition can yet be set forth for the “American School.” This document provides a clear starting point for research into the what, where, why, and how of the “American Flute School” by first identifying who is associated with that school. By tracing the lineage of transverse flute playing from teacher to student through the past 300 years, we may identify orchestral flutist, soloist, and teacher, Georges Barrère, as a primary influence upon American flute playing. Barrère and his students – and his students’ students – have taught approximately 91% of all living flutists in the United States today. Of that vast number, approximately 87% can trace their heritage (through one or more of their teachers) to Barrère student William Kincaid, renowned flutist of the Philadelphia Orchestra and pedagogue at the Curtis Institute of Music. It is important to note that most modern musicians study with more than one teacher over the course of their career (usually between three and eight).
