MUSIC DIRECTOR
Marin Alsop
Marin Alsop is an inspiring voice who
believes that “music has the power to
change lives.” She is recognized for her
innovative programming and for her
commitment to education and to the
development of audiences of all ages.
Her success as Music Director of the
Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO)
has been recognized by the extension
of her tenure until 2021. In Baltimore,
Alsop launched OrchKids, for the
city’s underserved youth, and the BSO
Academy program for adult amateur
musicians. She became Music Director
of the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra
in 2012 and becomes Chief Conductor
of the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony
Orchestra in September 2019.
Alsop conducts the world’s major
orchestras, including the Leipzig
Gewandhaus, Royal Concertgebouw
and the London Philharmonic orchestras.
In 2013, she became the first female
conductor of the BBC’s Last Night
of the Proms.
As a protégé of Leonard Bernstein,
Alsop was central to his 100 th -anniversary
celebrations, and conducted Bernstein’s
MASS at the Ravinia Festival, where she
served as Musical Curator for 2018. Her
extensive discography includes a highly
praised Dvořák cycle with the BSO. Her
dedication to new music is demonstrated
by her 25-year tenure as Music Director
of the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary
Music and her launching the BSO’s
New Music Festival in 2017.
Alsop is the only conductor to receive
the MacArthur Fellowship, and she
is Director of Graduate Conducting
at the Peabody Institute. She attended
the Juilliard School and Yale University,
which awarded her an Honorary
Doctorate in 2017.
