About Marin Alsop
Marin Alsop has been music director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra since 2007, and she has had two extensions in her tenure, now confirmed until 2021. As part of her artistic leadership in Baltimore, Ms. Alsop has created several bold initiatives: OrchKids, for the city's most deprived young people, and the BSO Academy and Rusty Musicians for adult amateur musicians. In 2012, she became principal conductor and music director of the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra, with her contract now extended to the end of 2019, when she becomes conductor of honor. In September 2019, she becomes chief conductor of the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra. Ms. Alsop received the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship, is an honorary member of the Royal Academy of Music and Royal Philharmonic Society, and was recently appointed director of graduate conducting at the Johns Hopkins Peabody Institute. She attended Juilliard and Yale, which awarded her an honorary doctorate in 2017.

About the Juilliard Orchestra
Juilliard's largest and most visible student performing ensemble, the Juilliard Orchestra, is known for delivering polished and passionate performances of works spanning the repertoire. Comprising more than 350 students in the bachelor's and master's degree programs, the orchestra appears throughout the season in concerts on the stages of Juilliard's Peter Jay Sharp Theater, Alice Tully Hall, David Geffen Hall, and Carnegie Hall.
 
The orchestra is a strong partner to Juilliard's other divisions, appearing in opera and dance productions, as well as presenting an annual concert of world premieres by Juilliard student composers. David Robertson was recently appointed director of conducting studies and distinguished visiting faculty.
 
This season, the Juilliard Orchestra welcomes distinguished guest conductors John Adams, Joseph Colaneri, Sir Mark Elder, Barbara Hannigan, Anne Manson, Steven Osgood, and Peter Oundjian and faculty conductors Jeffrey Milarsky, Itzhak Perlman, Matthias Pintscher, and David Robertson.
 
Last season, guest artists conducting the Juilliard Orchestra included Thomas Adès, Joseph Colaneri, Chen Lin, David Robertson, Speranza Scappucci, Gerard Schwarz, Emmanuel Villaume and Juilliard faculty members Alan Gilbert and Jeffrey Milarsky. 

The Juilliard Orchestra has toured across the U.S. and throughout Europe, South America, and Asia, where it was the first Western conservatory ensemble allowed to visit and perform following the opening of the People's Republic of China in 1987, returning two decades later, in 2008.
 
Other ensembles under the Juilliard Orchestra umbrella include the conductorless Juilliard Chamber Orchestra, the Juilliard Wind Orchestra, and the new-music groups AXIOM and New Juilliard Ensemble.
