MARIN ALSOP
Marin Alsop is an inspiring and
powerful voice in the international
music scene, a music director of vision
and distinction who passionately
believes that “music has the power to
change lives.” She is recognized across
the world for her innovative approach
to programming and for her deep
commitment to education and to the
development of audiences of all ages.
As Music Director of the Baltimore
Symphony Orchestra since 2007,
Maestra Alsop’s bold initiatives
contribute to the wider community
and reach new audiences. Shortly
after her arrival in Baltimore, she and
the orchestra launched “OrchKids,” a
revolutionary program that provides
music education, instruments,
mentorship and inspiration to some of
the city’s neediest young people. Under
her leadership, the orchestra also offers
adult amateur musicians the opportunity
to play side-by-side with professional
musicians through the BSO Academy
and Rusty Musicians programs.
Marin Alsop is the only conductor
