The Merian Ensemble

The Merian Ensemble is a chamber music group dedicated to promoting the standard of an inclusive repertoire. Formed in 2018 by five women musicians from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra to counteract the striking dearth of women composers programmed in classical music settings, they perform the abundant repertoire of music by women and commission a new work each year. In addition to traditional concerts, they give outreach performances for school-age children and presentations at libraries and public spaces throughout Atlanta. Their performances have been featured over 25 times on NPR’s “Performance Today,” and they were a recipient of a travel grant from Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation through USArtists International. They recently recorded an album of their commissioned works to be released by PARMA Recordings in late summer 2024. The Merian Ensemble is supported by New Music USA’s Organization Fund in 2023-24.
