Called “a fine percussionist” in The New York Times, soloist Greg Beyer specializes in repertoire that places non-western instruments into the context of contemporary musical thought. Second-prize winner of the 2002 Geneva International Music Competition, Beyer has given performances and masterclasses throughout the United States, Europe, China and South America.

Of primary importance to him is his project, Arcomusical - an endeavor involving ethnomusicological research on the berimbau and other related musical bows, and active composition and commission of new works for these ancient instruments. For his own compositions in this regard, Beyer has garnered awards from both ASCAP and SEAMUS.

As a chamber musician, Beyer has performed and/or recorded with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Speculum Musicae, So Percussion, the Orchestra of St. Luke’s, NewBand, Sequitur, Absolute Ensemble, and the S.E.M. Ensemble.

Beyer is a founding member of DUE EAST, the percussion and flute duo dedicated to the advancement of virtuosic chamber music by young emerging composers.
