Fall Concert Series: "Aether" with Marie Herrington

Bird in Hand hosts Marie Herrington on vocals and electronics for a concert titled "Aether." Join us for happy hour cocktails and coffee, and bask in the glory of Marie's ambient musical experience. Doors open at 5:45, concert begins at 6:00. This concert series is free, but cash donations will be accepted at the door to directly support the work of these local artists.

Marie specializes in contemporary vocal music and channels her musical passions through directing choirs, composing for solo voice and choir, and creating works for voice and electronics. Her choral music has received accolades, including the 2024 Mixed Voices Award from the International Federation of Choral Music, and has been performed by ensembles such as the Handel Choir of Baltimore and New York City’s C4.

She co-runs and performs in a recital series called Women in Music with pianist Timothy Krippner, which toured last fall. Her upcoming premiere is a chamber song cycle featuring arrangements of traditional Ukrainian folk songs and poetry, to be presented at Minneapolis’ Source Song Festival this August.

Marie sings a lot of contemporary music and collaborates with composer Ben Zervigon, who is the lead composer of Alluvium Ensemble - a contemporary music collective Luca Hoffmann is also a member of. Recently, Marie sang contemporary music with Flux Quartet and conductor Tito Muñoz for the MATA Festival in Brooklyn, NY.

Based in Baltimore, Marie curates a recital series and leads an Artist-in-Residence program for post-graduate international students at Govans Presbyterian Church, where she also serves as Director of Choral Music and Organist. In addition, she sings lead vocals in several funk/rock bands around the DMV area and occasionally plays keyboard for metal bands.

Marie’s diverse musical background not only shapes her unique artistic voice but also pushes the boundaries of vocal expression and the mediums through which it’s experienced.
