2024/25 Season

 

Group One: November 8-12, 2024

For nearly 60 years, the Musicians from Marlboro touring program has presented eminent artists with exciting young musical leaders. This ensemble pairs Marlboro Music Co-Artistic Director Mitsuko Uchida and St. Louis Symphony Principal Violist Beth Guterman Chu with two outstanding emerging string players: violinist Stephanie Zyzak and cellist Oliver Herbert. The program includes beloved works by Schumann and Beethoven, as well as selections from Signs, Games, and Messages by 1997 Marlboro Composer-in-Residence György Kurtág.

 

Group Two: February 14-23, 2025

“Not only is the virtuosity of Musicians from Marlboro consistently jaw-dropping, but the freshness, rich imagination, and sheer vitality of their playing is enough to make even the most jaded concertgoer edge to the front of their seat” (Washington Post). The second Marlboro touring program of the season shines a light on Schumann before concluding with Brahms’s Clarinet Quintet, one of his great autumnal masterworks and a piece of extraordinary emotional depth.

 

Group Three: April 26-May 4, 2025

In 2023, Marlboro Music welcomed Helmut Lachenmann as its Composer in Residence, a rare U.S. visit for this German composer who has shaped contemporary music worldwide. During his time in Vermont, Lachenmann worked closely with the musicians on Got Lost, a uniquely adventurous work for soprano and piano that challenges the physical and mental expectations of the performers. The evening concludes with another 2023 festival highlight, Mozart’s elegant and lyrical D Major String Quartet, with senior cellist Peter Wiley and three magnificent young string players.
