During the summer prior to his freshman year in high school, his father enrolled him in a 10-week workshop in St. Louis, Missouri run by one of the most inspired and inspiring jazz composer/arrangers of his time, Oliver Nelson. The workshop featured appearances from such jazz luminaries as Ron Carter, Thad Jones, Mel Lewis, Clark Terry, Roland Hanna, and Phil Woods. The experience of studying with these musicians cemented Marc’s destiny to become a jazz musician.
