Marian is thankful and has the great fortune to be a student in the Malko Academy for Young Conductors in Copenhagen, Denmark. Being a part of the first international edition of the Malko Academy, Marian is one of six young conductors who have the opportunity to gain experience through monthly rehearsals, tuition and general guidance in the art of conducting, delivered caringly by the internationally acclaimed conductors and teachers at the academy Henrik Vagn Christensen and Ole Faurschou. The Malko Academy has also made it possible for Marian and his colleagues to meet, talk with and learn from the legendary conductor Herbert Blomstedt, have a multi-session masterclass with the principal conductor of the Danish National Symphony Orchestra - Fabio Luisi, have lessons with the appointed chief conductor of the Aarhus Symphony Orchestra and Malko Competition 2021 winner Dmitry Matvienko, a masterclass with the world renowned conducting teacher Johannes Schlaefli and meetings consultations with prof. Harry Curtis (Berlin) and Arturo Alvarado (Helsinki) amongst other incredibly valuable opportunities and events for any young conductor.
