Featured Musician

Matthew Covington, Third Oboe

My musical journey began when I was very young singing in a youth choir, which continued into my adolescence, and I still sometimes sing as a second-rate countertenor. I also attended symphony concerts (and rehearsals) where my mom played violin. Upon reaching middle school I joined band and played… trumpet. I finally switched to the oboe in high school when I joined the Winston-Salem Youth Symphony. My musical journey led me to UNC-Greensboro where I studied with Ashley Barret. Although I didn’t finish my undergraduate education, the things I learned there were invaluable. Now as a professional, I hold positions with six different organizations (Greensboro Symphony, Carolina Philharmonic, Western Piedmont Symphony, Salisbury Symphony, Fayetteville Symphony, and Piedmont Wind Symphony), play as a substitute in several more, as well as teach at The Music Academy of North Carolina.

To Educate. To Entertain. To Inspire.

The Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1956 in Fayetteville, North Carolina, and is a professional, regional orchestra whose mission is to educate, entertain, and inspire the citizens of the Fayetteville, North Carolina region as the leading musical resource.  Praised for its artistic excellence, the Symphony leads in the cultural and educational landscape for Fayetteville and the southeastern North Carolina region.

The Fayetteville Symphony typically performs 8 concerts during any given season performing both at Methodist University and Fayetteville State University. Partnerships with other agencies include collaborative performances with Cape Fear Regional Theatre, chamber concerts at St. John’s Episcopal Church, as well as the city’s annual Independence concert with fireworks. The Symphony brings music to the schools and the community by performing educational concerts, as well as having its own Fayetteville Symphony Youth Orchestra, after school strings and summer music camps.

This organization is supported in part by a space grant from the BB&T Term Endowment of Cumberland Community Foundation, Inc.
