The Merian Ensemble

The Merian Ensemble is a chamber group comprised of five women from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, dedicated to performing the existing repertoire of music by women and commissioning a new work each year. In addition to traditional concerts, they give outreach performances for school-age children and presentations at libraries and other public spaces throughout Atlanta. Their performances have been featured multiple times on NPR’s “Performance Today,” and they were a recipient of a travel grant from Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation through USArtists International. To date, they have commissioned seven new works funded by grants from Agnes Scott College, the American Harp Society, the PRS Foundation, and private donors.
