Marlboro Music represents an ultimate harmony of natural beauty and the beauty of chamber music. My memories of experiencing its enchantment go back for sixty years of attendance. Over that time there have, of course, been changes, but what has always remained constant is Marlboro’s central ethos: integrity of purpose and a commitment of rare purity to its guiding focus on pursuing a mission of excellence in interpretation and performance, of respectful devotion to the works of art and their composers that binds musicians young and old, past and present, in a cause that transcends time and generation. A moral seriousness is at work, one that embraces both the artistic and the human values found in the life and aspirations of the Marlboro community.
