Carol Fujino

Carol Fujino has been a member of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra's string section since 1991, and played in several other Toronto orchestras preceding her career with the TSO. She is a veteran of the musical theatre tradition, having played in most of Toronto's major productions in the late '80s and early '90s. As soloist, Carol Fujino performed in the TSO's Pops Series, playing Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Violins in A minor, and in 1993, Saraste's Navarra for Two Violins. As a chamber musician, Carol Fujino regularly performs with Five Small Concerts (presented by the Associates of the TSO), is a member of the Accordes String Quartet, has appeared with the Amici Chamber Ensemble, performed in Cuban-themed concerts with the Juno Award-winning Gryphon Trio at Toronto's hip Lula Lounge, and played the viola for the now-defunct Modern Quartet, a group dedicated to performing new compositions. Carol was also regularly heard on CBC Radio 2's Two New Hours (1978-2007), notably in two works featuring her as soloist: Alfred Schnittke's Concerto Grosso No. 1 and Arvo Pärt's Tabula Rasa on the Esprit Series in 2004.
