ABOUT

A musician’s experience at Marrowstone includes a daily 9-5 schedule full of rehearsals, chamber music, and the opportunity to study with our world-class faculty in daily masterclasses and coachings. Students will share both large-scale orchestral works and smaller chamber performances with communities both in and outside of Seattle in the Festival’s culminating concerts.

Marrowstone is a life-changing opportunity for student musicians to explore symphonic music in great depth, and to be an integral part in the process of artistic creation.

HISTORY

An institution since 1943, Marrowstone Music Festival is the Pacific Northwest’s premier orchestral training program. Marrowstone is presented by Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestra.

True to its history, Marrowstone remains an orchestral training experience. Marrowstone’s three orchestras perform weekly under the direction of world class conductors and artist-faculty. The festival also includes chamber music studies and performance, master classes, and private instruction.

Marrowstone students have had the opportunity to study with internationally acclaimed performers and artist-faculty from such institutions as the Chicago Symphony, the Zurich Opera Orchestra, the Seattle Symphony, the University of Michigan, the University of Texas-Austin, the Empire Brass, and the National Symphony Orchestra.

Marrowstone graduates and alumni play in major orchestras and opera companies across the United States, including those of Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, and New York, as well as internationally in London, Paris, Milan, Hong Kong and Tokyo, and many others.
