Marlon is the Director of Music and Arts at First Presbyterian Church. He is also the Artistic Director of the Kentucky Bach Choir.

Marlon: “It’s odd to be a choir director without a choir to conduct. The Bach Choir comprises people who can sing by themselves. Church choirs often include people who like to sing but with others. To ask church choir members to sing in a virtual choir can be alienating. I am attending conferences this summer, hoping to figure this out.”
