Ms. Meir is John Rutter’s go-to keyboardist in NYC, and principal pianist for the celebrated Brooklyn Youth Chorus which regularly commissions/premieres works of today’s leading composers; with them she’s performed at MusicNOW, Ecstatic Music Festival, Bang on a Can, and numerous broadcasts on WQXR.
