I first came to Marlboro in my student years and still after all these years, I am inspired by the enduring quality of quality itself.
Marlboro is where we finally realize we can grow up to be great artists, but we never have to stop being children in our curiosity and our joy at making musical discoveries. It is where we learn that humility and gratitude go hand in hand with daring and adventurousness, and these bind us to our ancestors and to our successors alike, and make us vibrant contributors to this planet here and now.
