George Meyer

Violinist/violist/composer George Meyer is equally interested in classical music and fiddle playing, and the music he writes draws on both sources. He has performed his compositions in a wide variety of settings, from the Telluride Bluegrass Festival to the 92nd Street Y. He has been commissioned by Chamber Music Northwest, Katie Hyun with Astral Artists, Mike Marshall and Caterina Lichtenberg, the Aizuri Quartet, the New York Classical Players, and Bravo! Vail.

2024-2025 highlights include the premiere of a Triple Concerto for two violins and viola with Emma Frucht, Brian Hong, and George as soloists with the New York Classical Players and Dongmin Kim in four NYC concerts. Upstream, a duo project with pianist-composer Will Healy, made its Carnegie Hall debut and recorded an album of 11 original co-compositions for release in Fall 2025.

Other projects include a duo with his father, bassist Edgar Meyer. They perform traditional, original, and co-written works and have also toured with Sam Bush and Mike Marshall. They will reunite with Marshall to tour in 2026.

He holds degrees from Harvard College and the Juilliard School, and he is a faculty member at Juilliard’s Extension Division. He is from Nashville, TN.
