FROM LEADING MAJOR ENSEMBLES AROUND THE WORLD TO CULTIVATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF TALENT , BSO Music Director Laureate Marin Alsop maintains a busy schedule — but it hasn ’ t kept her from stopping in to see us ! In addition to being one of the most celebrated conductors on the scene today , Maestra Alsop ’ s leadership extends off the stage as a pioneer for gender equality on the podium , an educator , and a pillar of her community in Baltimore and across the State of Maryland . We wanted to give BSO audiences a glimpse of what she ’ s been up to in recent years , and were fortunate to snag her for an interview .
