“The artistry of Mr. Daniel is fabulous and exceptional.”
Pravda – Moscow

One of the most dynamic conductors of his generation, Marlon Daniel has been described as " … a natural and enormous talent" (Chicago Sun-Times) and his artistry has been hailed as “… fabulous and exceptional” (Pravda – Moscow). He is one of the foremost interpreters in the world of music written by Black composers and the go-to-man for performing even the most virtuosic contemporary works by composers of color. He is Principal Conductor of the Festival of African and African American Music (fesaam.org), the Artistic Director of The Saint-Georges International Festival in Guadeloupe and the Music Director of the innovative New York based chamber orchestra, Ensemble du Monde. Most recently he won the 2009 Foncannon Conducting Award, which allowed him to work with Sir Simon Rattle and the Berlin Philharmonic. He has also received the ‘Voice of the Artist’ Award from the United Nations in recognition of his charitable work of bringing awareness to the crisis in Darfur.
