Rosemary Smith

Rosemary studied music at the Victorian College of the Arts with Philip Michel and Catherine McKorkill and went on to teach woodwinds at some of Melbourne’s top schools. She also completed a Bachelor of Education, in primary and secondary teaching at Deakin University, giving her the tools to get the best out of a much wider range of students.
After completing a very technical classical degree, Rosemary turned her back on classical playing for more than a decade, choosing instead to play musical theatre, jazz, rock and folk music in a range of ensembles, from orchestras to combos accompanying singers. Recently she’s returned to classical music, notably with the Menuridae ensemble.
