Carl Smith is a faculty member at the Blair School of Music, Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, where he teaches courses in music theory, counterpoint, choral composition, and Historical Performance Traditions. He is the composer of eight song-cycles to various poets, keyboard music, anthems, and several larger motets. He is perhaps best known as a composer for his numerous settings for various ensembles of the poems, aphorisms, and letters of the Italian artist and poet Michelangelo Buonarroti (all in his own translations) and for his secular requiem The Lavender Fields to poems of Czeslaw Milosz.
