René Shapiro
Assistant Principal Trumpet, Baltimore Symphony

Biography

René Hernandez is the Assistant Principal Trumpet who’s jovial, extroverted playing takes the lead in virtually every BSO Pops concert.
Since 2004, he has put the brassiness in the big high solo parts for Jack Everly, Paquito D’Rivera, Al Jarreau, John Williams shows and Burt Bacharach, to name just a few. He has even sounded the “Call to the Post” to kick off the Preakness at Pimlico. A native of San Diego CA, he has performed with the Boston Symphony, the Boston Philharmonic, Albany Symphony Orchestras, the International Symphony in Jerusalem, the Orquesta Sinfonica de Galicia in Spain, the Orquesta Sinfonica del Estado De Mexico, and the Giuseppe Verdi Orchestra di Milano in Italy where he met his wife Silva. In addition to Maestra Marin Alsop and Maestro Yuri Temirkanov, a few of the notable conductors with whom Mr. Hernandez has worked are Sir Simon Rattle, Michael Tilson Thomas and Lorin Maazel. A faculty member at Towson University, he has appeared as soloist around the region and at the International Trumpet Guild Conference. When resting his chops during the arduous winter season, Rene can be found on major ski slopes around the United States.
