Marlon Daniel at Mu Phi Epsilon Convention, conducting works of Libby Larsen & Le Chevalier de Saint-Georges

[Maestro Marlon Daniel]

Marlon Daniel writes today, August 9, 2011 from the Mu Phi Epsilon International Music Fraternity "International Convention" in Rochester, New York:

“I am now in Rochester performing a concert and speaking about Saint-Georges!

I get to work with Libby Larsen! I am conducting two new works by the composer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libby_Larsen

The link below is the magazine the organization publishes, where I was featured in an article:


They are treating me quite well. I am being elected to the international board of directors!

This organization is linked to many universities here in the US.

All the best,

Marlon"
