In the special "The Truth In This Art" series at Artscape 40, I catch up with Todd Marcus moments after his performance with the Todd Marcus Quintet on Day 3 of the festival. Todd is a bass clarinetist, bandleader, and a multi-time guest on "The Truth In This Art."

Todd Marcus is renowned for his innovative work as a bass clarinetist, blending jazz and classical influences to create a unique sound. As a bandleader, he has been instrumental in bringing new perspectives to jazz, earning recognition for his dynamic performances and compositions. His dedication to both music and community engagement has made him a pivotal figure in Baltimore's arts scene.

Relive Artscape 40, one of America's largest free outdoor arts festivals, showcasing Baltimore's vibrant cultural flair with artists, performances, and activities for all.

Thank you to BOPA and our guest, Todd Marcus, for supporting these interviews, proudly presented by Verizon and Crust By Mack.
