Anthony Camden (26 April 1938 – 7 March 2006) was the principal oboe and chairman of the board at the London Symphony Orchestra.
While at the RCM he joined the Camden Trio, an ensemble started by his father Archie, Rothwell and pianist Wilfred Parry,[3] which would later feature his older brother Kerry and Ian Lake.
After leaving the Royal College of Music, Camden became a founding member of the Northern Sinfonia Orchestra in 1960 and immediately became the Principal Oboe.
When Williams agreed after some persuasion, Camden immediately called Denham Studios in England and booked 18 sessions so the LSO could record the yet written score.
[4] In 1988 Camden left the London Symphony Orchestra and joined the Queensland Conservatorium of Music in Brisbane where he was the Provost and director, a position he would hold until 1993.
In 1993 he joined the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts as the dean of the School of Music,[3] a position he held until his retirement in 2003.
