Meet Myriad Ensemble
Myriad started as a small 'summer choir' of just seven singers who gathered to sing for fun. After Elise (Myriad's Artistic Director and founder) finished grad school, this small group embarked on a journey to turn a hobby collective into a formal choral organization. This was the beginning of Myriad.
The choir offers a community for young women who love to sing, meet like-minded individuals, have fun and make some great music in the process.
Today, Myriad is a growing choral organization with 50 singers, paid staff, donors, patrons and an ever growing audience base. The heart of our vision is community and artistic innovation - principles that continue to guide our purpose today.
