Our week at Marlboro begins
The gentlemanly American pianist Richard Goode has never cared for the hype and hyperbole of the music business. Which is one of several reasons he's perfectly suited to his role as co-artistic director of Marlboro Music, the unique artistic retreat in the hills of Vermont. Richard Goode joins us to talk about the value of time and silence at Marlboro, a place that cultivates musical depth over sheer virtuosity. And we'll hear Richard Goode team up with two Marlboro friends for a ravishing performance of the Brahms Horn Trio.
