Marshall McDaniel portrait

Built in theatre. Trained in classical music. At home wherever sound meets story.

Raised at the Theatricum Botanicum and trained as a classical cellist in Germany, Marshall has built a practice spanning orchestra, stage, screen, movement, and electronics.

About Marshall

“The premiere…proved to be a turbulent American treat. Huge applause: Almost a thousand listeners were simply euphoric from this concert.”

Hessische/Niedersächsische Allgemeine, The 5-Minute Orchestra Extravaganza

“Enhancing the play is original music by Marshall McDaniel, who lent the Bard’s most beloved words a refreshing new sound.”

Messenger Mountain News, Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night

“Why doesn't this have millions of views?? Great work!”
