“…so fresh and full-blooded, so full of earthy vitality and sheer sensual pleasure, that it made you happy to be alive.”
Celebrating nearly sixty years, the Musicians From Marlboro touring program was created as an extension of Vermont’s Marlboro Music Festival.
Musicians from Marlboro tours are noted not only for their joyous and thoroughly prepared performances, but also for offering valuable touring experience to artists at the beginning of their careers, and for featuring programs of unusual as well as beloved chamber repertoire.
Since their inception, the Musicians from Marlboro tours have introduced such great talents as Yefim Bronfman, Pamela Frank, Richard Goode, Jaime Laredo, Murray Perahia, Paula Robison, András Schiff, Peter Serkin, Richard Stoltzman, Christian Tetzlaff, Benita Valente and Harold Wright, among others. They have also included other exceptional artists now heard in the Brentano, Emerson, Guarneri, Juilliard, Orion, Miami, Muir, Tokyo, St. Lawrence, Rosamunde and Ying Quartets, and the Beaux Arts, Eroica, and Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trios and Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
Musicians From Marlboro concert series are held each year in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Greenwich (CT) and Washington, DC; with individual performances frequently in Berkeley (CA), Toronto, Montreal, Chicago, Iowa City, Phoenix, Brattleboro (VT) and elsewhere. Concerts in 2023-24 include:
Group One: November 10-19, 2023
Viola, Viola by 2022 Marlboro Composer-in-Residence George Benjamin features on our season-opening tour program, which also includes Felix Mendelssohn’s exuberant E-flat Major Quartet and Lyric for Strings by George Walker, the first Black composer to win the Pulitzer Prize for Music.
Group Two: December 2-10, 2023
The second of three Marlboro touring ensembles this season pairs Ralph Vaughan Williams’s powerful Blake Songs for tenor and oboe with Scottish composer Helen Grime’s exhilarating Oboe Quartet and the expansive majesty of Brahms’s Piano Quartet in A Major.
Group Three: February 17-25, 2024
The third Marlboro touring ensemble of this season offers a richly varied program that begins with Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s harmonically beguiling Five Fantasiestücke and concludes with Arnold Schoenberg’s intense, enthralling Verklärte Nacht.
