Symphony Number One names Managing Director

Brian Harris

Brian Harris

Symphony Number One has named Brian Harris as Managing Director, effective June 15.

Brian Harris is an oboist and network engineer who recently relocated to Baltimore from nearby Clarksburg, MD. He began his career in music education before transitioning into networking and telecommunications infrastructure, where he has remained for over a decade. Because of his managerial role on a range of fast-paced, results-driven contracts, Harris brings a wealth of leadership experience to Symphony Number One’s administrative team. Outside of work, Brian is an active member on the community ensemble circuit. He plays with the Hopkins Symphony Orchestra and performs locally as a freelance musician. Highlights of past performances have included concert cycles with the Columbia Orchestra (MD), NIH Philharmonia, and as featured soloist with the Montgomery Village Community Band. Brian is inspired by the rich musical community in Baltimore, and will be instrumental in planning Symphony Number One’s upcoming seasons.

Symphony Number One returns with the music of Schoenberg and James Lee on September 7 and 8 at the Carl J Murphy Performing Arts Center at Morgan State University. Visit our 2019-2020 season page to learn more.
