The Parhelion Trio – Sarah Carrier (flute), Ashleé Miller (clarinet), and Andrea Christie (piano) – recently made their national debut at the 2014 National Flute Convention in Chicago, where they performed multiple concerts featuring works by living American composers. As part of the “ETHEL and Friends” series at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Parhelion regularly collaborates with living composers to create new works that explore the ensemble’s unique potential while incorporating original arrangements from the canonical repertoire. Parhelion was formed in 2010 at the Institute for Contemporary Performance at Mannes College The New School for Music.
