Marin Alsop
Marin Alsop is an inspiring and
powerful voice in the international
music scene, a music director of vision
and distinction who passionately
believes that “music has the power to
change lives.” She is recognized across
the world for her innovative approach
to programming and for her deep
commitment to education and to the
development of audiences of all ages.
Marin Alsop made history with her
appointment as the 12th music director
of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra
(BSO). With her inaugural concerts in
September 2007, she became the first
woman to head a major American
orchestra. She also holds the title of
conductor emeritus at the Bournemouth
Symphony in the United Kingdom,
where she served as the principal
conductor from 2002–2008.
Her success as the BSO’s music
director has garnered national and
international attention for her innovative programming and artistry. Her
success was recognized in 2013, when her
tenure was extended to the 2020 –2021
season. Alsop took up the post of music
director of the São Paulo Symphony
Orchestra in 2012, where she steers
the orchestra in its artistic and creative
programming, recording ventures and
its education and outreach activities.
In the summer of 2013, Maestra
Alsop served her 22nd season as music
director of the acclaimed Cabrillo
Festival of Contemporary Music in
California. Musical America, which
named Maestra Alsop the 2009
Conductor of the Year, said, “[Marin
Alsop] connects to the public as few
conductors today can.”
