The Dickinson Ensemble is a chamber group devoted solely to composing and performing musical works inspired by Dickinson’s rich literary legacy. We also seek to collaborate with artists in other disciplines to create new expressions of her visions in sound, sight, imagination, and motion.
We are, we believe, the only musical group dedicated to conserving Dickinson’s musical legacy while focusing on creating new artistic collaborations built upon her work. Rather than being limited by this commitment, we are exploring her vast but largely unknown compositional heritage while making our own original contributions to the legacy of this most musical of poets.
