Fisk renews at symphony

The Richmond Symphony has extended the contract of David Fisk, its executive director, through 2020.

The English-born Fisk, a 51-year-old graduate of Manchester University and the Royal Northern of Music in Manchester, joined the Richmond Symphony in 2002 after serving as chief executive officer of the Ulster Orchestra Society in Belfast and as manager of the Orchestra of St. John’s, Smith Square, a chamber orchestra in London.

Fisk, a pianist, and his wife, the Irish-born soprano Anne O’Byrne, are active performers in local recitals and chamber concerts.
