Artist-Faculty

Richard Mackey, French horn
|
Born in Philadelphia, Richard Mackey joined the
horn section of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in January of 1973; he
retired from the BSO at the end of the 2005 Tanglewood season, after
thirty-two years of service to the orchestra. A Tanglewood Music
Center alumnus, he attended the New England Conservatory of Music,
where he studied horn with former BSO principal player William
Valkenier and solfege with Gaston Dufresne, who was a bass player
with the Boston Symphony. During his career, Mr. Mackey was
also a member of the orchestras of Kansas City -- 4th horn, San
Antonio -- 2nd horn, Detroit -- 2nd horn, New
Orleans -- 1st horn, Cleveland -- 3rd horn, and
Japan Philharmonic -- 1st horn. Before joining the BSO, he
was a freelance musician in the Los Angeles studios for eight
years. He also attended the Marlboro Music Festival in Vermont for
nine summers. Mr. Mackey’s first and continuing musical love is
Mozart; he collects scores, facsimiles, books, first and early
editions, and just about anything relevant to that composer. This is
his second summer with AYO. |
