The Meridian Clarinet Quartet, established in February 2023, is comprised of four accomplished musicians from prominent orchestras across the United States. Our name, 'Meridian,' signifies our converging paths here in the United States, all of us having traveled from one side of the globe to the other to embark on our respective musical journeys. It also symbolizes our aspiration to reach the great artistic heights only possible through sensitive and thoughtful collaboration, the musical thread passing through each of us before being transmitted to our audiences. Our mission is deeply rooted in nurturing appreciation for the enchanting world of clarinet music while fostering the talents of future generations.
