Symphony bids farewell to unrattled Smith

Article Abstract:

Being in charge of an orchestra has become an extremely challenging task, according to outgoing City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Chief Executive Ed Smith.

He emphasizes that it is very unlikely that the orchestra will be able to continue to perform its current range of work to its existing high standard unless it receives more public funding.
