Brinton Averil Smith
Brinton Averil Smith (born 1969, in Royal Oak, Michigan) is an American cellist.
Smith has been the principal cellist of the Houston Symphony since 2005 and is a faculty member of the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University and the Aspen Music Festival, as well as being a frequent guest soloist and chamber musician. Smith gave the first professional performance of Castelnuovo-Tedesco's cello concerto, Op. 72 in over 80 years, and the live performance was released on the Naxos label in June 2018. Smith is known for his live performance videos of unusual cello works such as Sibelius' Theme and Variations for solo cello and violin transcriptions such as Paganini's 24th caprice, Ravel's Tzigane and Waxman's Carmen Fantasie, as well as his doctoral dissertation on the playing of Emanuel Feuermann.
