For those who have followed <strong>Marlboro</strong> over the<br />
years, it has been a delight <strong>to</strong> see a wonderful<br />
sense of continuity. Artists who came as young<br />
professionals in the 1960s, 1970s, <strong>and</strong> 1980s, including<br />
Co-Artistic Direc<strong>to</strong>rs Richard Goode <strong>and</strong> Mitsuko<br />
Uchida, have returned <strong>to</strong> give back <strong>to</strong> another<br />
generation what they had gained from the founders<br />
<strong>and</strong> other early men<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>and</strong> <strong>to</strong> share their own fresh<br />
ideas. For Goode, performance is just a part of the<br />
exploration process, not the essence of what <strong>Marlboro</strong><br />
is really about:<br />
“The whole idea is <strong>to</strong> make the study of the work<br />
the main thing, which it can <strong>and</strong> should be.”<br />

Mitsuko Uchida, in a ten-page New Yorker magazine<br />
profile on <strong>Marlboro</strong>, summed up her feelings:<br />
“In <strong>Marlboro</strong>, you get a different way of not only<br />
looking at the world but also of looking at life.<br />
If you spend weeks <strong>to</strong>gether, day in <strong>and</strong> day out,<br />
eating the meals <strong>to</strong>gether, chatting <strong>and</strong> sitting<br />
around <strong>and</strong> drinking the beer <strong>to</strong>gether…you begin<br />
<strong>to</strong> get a basic outline of what it really means <strong>to</strong><br />
be a musician, as opposed <strong>to</strong> flying from one city<br />
<strong>to</strong> the next <strong>and</strong> rehearsing the ‘Archduke’ Trio for<br />
half an hour <strong>and</strong> then already walking on-stage.<br />
Ultimately, <strong>Marlboro</strong> is about the concept of time.<br />
We have time <strong>to</strong> rehearse, time simply <strong>to</strong> think.”
