Lynne Plowman: The Open Fund for Music Creators
New work for The Merian Ensemble
“I am hugely grateful to the PRS Foundation for supporting this project – a new work for flute, oboe, clarinet, harp and viola – for performances by the Merian Ensemble in the USA and Brazil. The Merian Ensemble comprises five superb musicians from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, led by their principal harpist, Elisabeth Remy Johnson. They will premiere the new work in Atlanta, Georgia in March 2022 and, as featured artists at the Rio International Harp Festival in Brazil.”
Lynne Plowman’s compositions range from delicate instrumental solos to dramatic large-scale vocal, theatrical and orchestral works. Commissioners and collaborators include BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Welsh National Opera, Glyndebourne, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the London Mozart Players, Presteigne Festival, Piano Circus, UPROAR, O Duo and the BBC Singers. In 2020, she released ‘The Beachcomber’ – an album of intimate solos and duos spanning twenty years of her work, on the Prima Facie label.
