In 1989, Fulcher performed the British premiere of Ranki's Tales of Father Goose and has since performed the Gordon Jacob and Launy Grondahl trombone concerti in London and the Ferdinand David Concertino in Peru with the Lima Symphony Orchestra. In 2006, he performed the Derek Bourgeois Trombone Concerto with the RAF Central Band.

In 1991 Fulcher was a finalist the Shell LSO Scholarship competition, where he played a concerto in the Barbican Centre with the London Symphony Orchestra.

Fulcher has also performed at the International Trombone Festival in Helsinki, Finland (2003) and Birmingham, UK (2006).

Fulcher held the position of co-principal trombone of the Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia, Spain before returning to London to freelance in 1993. He then worked with a wide variety of orchestras and ensembles including the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, London Symphony Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and BBC Symphony Orchestra. Byron became Principal Trombone of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in 2000 and moved to the Philharmonia Orchestra in September 2001. In 2009 he became Principal Trombone of the London Sinfonietta.
