Kalliope Reed Quintet is the first professional reed quintet in New England. Celebrating music from the Americas, our commissions have created cultural connections with composers from Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and the United States, and our performances include national appearances and a tour to Mazatlán, Mexico. Dedicated to expanding local arts access, we perform free concerts across Greater Boston at museums, libraries, churches and other community venues. Learn more at www.kalliopereedquintet.com.
