His London debut recital was presented at the Purcell Room for the Park Lane Group. He has commissioned more than 20 new works for harp, and in recognition of this received the 1997 Sounds Australian Award for the Most Distinguished Contribution to the Presentation of Australian Music. He has performed as soloist with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, English String Orchestra, Les Talens Lyriques, Australian Brandenburg Orchestra, Melbourne Symphony and the Australia Ensemble and has appeared at international festivals including Aldeburgh, Melbourne, Milan, Geneva, Brighton, Vienna, Huddersfield, Huntington and Adelaide. From 1988-1992, Marshall was Principal Harpist with the Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra. He has been a member of the ELISION ensemble since 1988, and lecturer in harp at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music since 1990. In 2003 he was appointed Artistic Director of The Seymour Group, and was awarded an inaugural Creative Fellowship from the State Library of Victoria to research the works of Peggy Glanville-Hicks. He received a Churchill Fellowship in 2004 to travel to San Francisco and New York to research baroque performance and contemporary music ensembles. He made his conducting debut in performances of Mozart’s The Magic Flute with Pacific Opera in 1999. From 1999-2001 he was curator of the Twilight Chamber Music Series for Sydney Festival, and in 2003 he was artist-in-residence at the Bundanon Trust. Marshall has released seven CDs, and has received three ARIA award nominations, including Spring Sea – music for dreams with shakuhachi master Riley Lee, and the twentieth century harp, featuring works by Britten, Takemitsu, John Cage, Berio, Hindemith, Tournier, Paul Stanhope and Peggy Glanville-Hicks. His second CD with Riley Lee Floating World was released on the New World label in May 2004.
