Marlboro Week
All this week on PT, we'll be bringing you great performances from the Marlboro Music Festival in Vermont. Founder Rudolf Serkin called it a "republic of equals," with young professionals and seasoned veterans making music together side-by-side. In today's show, we'll meet co-artistic directors Mitsuko Uchida and Richard Goode, and hear performances from what one Marlboro board member calls "a summer camp for geniuses."
