Originally from New York, Barry Rosen’s Baltimore roots began during his time as an undergraduate at The Johns Hopkins University. After completing his law degree at Harvard University, Barry returned to Baltimore and officially made it his home to raise his family and begin his practice of law.

Strong in his belief that the strength of BSO is tied to the health and vibrancy of Baltimore, Barry’s finely-honed listening skills will bring together the BSO’s many critical stakeholders to shepherd this cultural institution toward a vivid and sustainable future.

The Chairman and CEO of Gordon Feinblatt LLC and head of the firm’s Health Care Practice Group, Barry was briefly involved with the BSO Board in the 1990s under then Chair Calman ‘Buddy’ Zamoiski. Barry re-joined the Board of Directors in an official capacity in 2014, and has served as both Chair of the Governance Committee as well as a Vice Chair of the Board leading up to his long-planned leadership transition in September 2019.

This is not the first time Barry has played a leadership role in an anchor Maryland institution. Barry’s professional and civic involvement includes service on several statewide health commissions and the Board of Sponsors for The Sellinger School of Business and Management at Loyola University (2002-present), as well as both Sinai Hospital of Baltimore and Lifebridge Health, where he also served as Chair of Board (1997-2001, and 2001-2004 respectively).

In addition to his loyal personal support and subscription attendance at the BSO – Barry and his wife, Susan, regularly fill their Choose subscription with a mix of Classical, Off the Cuff and SuperPops events – Barry has stewarded his firm’s support and engagement of the BSO as an annual concert sponsor.

Barry’s skill and collaborative leadership was instrumental in reaching agreement on the BSO’s 2019-20 contract – with key elements such as the Vision Committee, among others, directly attributable to his voice.
