Conductor Nathaniel Meyer has been hailed as a “talented and charismatic–a new, dynamic Leonard Bernstein”, for his electrifying performances of rarely heard works of classical music, brought to life with haunting virtuosity.  Boston Globe critic emeritus Richard Dyer describes:

“the musical imagination and the physical gifts of a born conductor. He led…with power, passion and pertinence…The audience and the orchestra burst into applause and cheers.”

Meyer was the 1st prize winner at the LaGuardia Conducting Competition, and has gone on to conduct across Europe and the Americas. As the Music Director of the Du Bois Orchestra, he gave the premieres of long-lost works by African-American composers such as Florence Price, Margaret Bonds, and others. His journey includes studies at top institutions like Yale, where he was the recipient of the Wrexham Prize in Music, to masterclasses and apprenticeships with leading European conductors, and accolades as an award-winning trumpet soloist. He has performed in the United States, South America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, in venues including New York’s Carnegie Hall, Boston’s Symphony Hall, the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, Germany, Smetana Hall in Prague, and the Sala São Paulo in Brazil. He has been an assistant for recording projects with the London Philharmonia Orchestra, as well as with the Orchestra of the Americas.

Meyer recently conducted the Hungarian National Symphony Orchestra, the Bucharest Symphony, the Paris Mozart Orchestra, and the Prague Philharmonia. He has also conducted the Thüringen Philharmonie Gotha-Eisenach and the Brandenburger Symphoniker (Germany), the Camerata Antonio Soler (Spain), the Bacau Philharmonic Orchestra (Romania), and across the United States, with orchestras ranging from the East Coast, to the Midwest and the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
