Join the Summer Staff at Marlboro

Marlboro Music is widely considered to be the world’s leading center for the in-depth exploration of chamber music by outstanding professional musicians. Each summer, under the artistic leadership of Mitsuko Uchida and Jonathan Biss, 80 musicians of diverse ages and backgrounds come together in southern Vermont, living with staff members, spouses, and children to form one large and nurturing musical family.

If you love chamber music, community, and the natural beauty of Vermont, we encourage you to apply to join our summer staff. Successful applicants will be flexible team players with an interest in music, collaboration, and the festival environment. Available positions include operations, administrative, housekeeping, hospitality, and lifeguarding roles.

Summer positions provide a substantial wage plus full room and board (a single room on campus and all meals). Staff members work six days a week during the season and also facilitate the pre-and-post season set up and break down of the festival. During the summer, staff members enjoy much of the music, the social events, the unique community, and the beautiful Vermont countryside.

At this time, all positions for the 2026 summer season have been filled. Hiring for summer 2027 will begin towards the end of the calendar year. If you have general questions about summer employment at Marlboro, please contact Anne Marie Strader ([email protected]) or Jody Alan Lee ([email protected]).
