==Career== Though the composer used the term "expressivist" to describe his music, Marshall's music is often associated with [[post-minimalism]]. His music often reflects an interest in world music, particularly Balinese [[gamelan]] tradition, as well as influence from the American [[minimalism]] trends of the 1960s (the composer often acknowledged the work of [[Steve Reich]], [[Terry Riley]], and [[John Adams (composer)|John Adams]]). He first gained recognition for his [[Electroacoustic music|electroacoustic]] pieces, often performed by the composer himself on [[synthesizer]], tape looping, [[gambuh]] (a traditional Balinese flute), and voice ("Fragility Cycles" [1978] is one of his best known works using this method of solo performance). His acoustic music frequently incorporated tape delay, and later, [[digital delay]] (such as "Soe Pa", for solo classical guitar, and "Hymnodic Delays" for the Theatre of Voices). Many of the tape parts of his pieces include the composer's own keening falsetto and [[gambuh]] playing (such as "Fog Tropes" and "Gradual Requiem" (1980)). Some of his works were produced in coordination with the assistance of noted Norwegian photographer, James Bengston of Studio Nord in Oslo. Marshall wrote for the [[Kronos Quartet]]: ''Voces Resonae'' (1984) and ''Fog Tropes II'' (1982), featured in the 2010 film ''[[Shutter Island (film)|Shutter Island]]'', and for the [[Orpheus Chamber Orchestra]]: ''Orphic Memories'' (2006). He taught at the [[California Institute of the Arts]] in the early 1970s, joined the music faculty at [[The Evergreen State College]] in the late 1980s, and later moved to New Haven, Connecticut. He taught at the [[Yale School of Music]] and the [[Hartt School]], and also held visiting teaching positions at the [[San Francisco Conservatory of Music]] and [[Brooklyn College]]. Among his notable students are [[Timo Andres]], [[Armando Bayolo]], [[Christopher Cerrone]], [[Tyondai Braxton]], [[Jacob Cooper]], [[Adrian Knight (composer)|Adrian Knight]], [[Matt Sargent]], and [[Stephen Gorbos]]. Marshall was the recipient of a [[Fulbright Scholarship]] and studied [[gamelan]] music in [[Bali]]. In 1990 he was awarded a doctorate of philosophy in music by [[Lake Forest College]], largely in recognition of his Fulbright award and gamelan studies in Bali. In addition to his Fulbright award, he received awards from the [[National Endowment for the Arts]], [[Rockefeller Foundation]], [[Fromm Foundation]], [[John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation|Guggenheim Foundation]], and the [[American Academy of Arts and Letters]].
