Wilma Smith, violinist, is returning this year with French horn player, Saul Lewis and pianist, Ian Munro to play works by Brahms. Wilma is the Concertmaster and Saul is the Principal Third Horn of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Ian is one of Australia's most distinguished and awarded musicians. Other activities on our day for the classics will be chosen in accordance with this concert of classical music.
Concertmaster of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra since 2003, Wilma Smith combines her love of the symphonic repertoire with a busy chamber music life. While performing the symphonic and chamber music repertoire is undoubtedly the core of Wilma’s musical life, she is also a committed teacher of violin at The University of Melbourne and privately.
Ian Munro has emerged over recent years as one of Australia’s most distinguished and awarded musicians, with a career that has taken him to thirty countries in Europe, Asia, North America and Australasia. His award in 2003 of Premier Grand Prix at the Queen Elisabeth International Competition for composers (Belgium) is a unique achievement for an Australian and follows on from multiple prizes in international piano competitions in Spain (Maria Canals), Italy (Busoni), Portugal (Vianna da Motta) and the UK, where his second prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition in 1987 established his international profile.
Saul Lewis has been a member of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Horn section since 2009 and holds the position of Principal Third Horn. He has played with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Sydney Symphony and Australian Chamber Orchestra, as well as being active in the commercial scene on film scores. Saul was a founding member of the Sydney wind quintet Enigma Five and was reviewed for his “fine horn playing” in a concerto performance with Cove Chamber Ensemble in 1991. He won the position of Principal Third Horn with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in 2010 and is also teaching at Monash University and The University of Melbourne.
