About

COUNTERPOINT is a community of intellectually curious and creative Atlantans who enjoy rich cultural experiences. Members have access to curated salons that feature intimate conversations with luminaries before concerts. The group name is inspired by the musical technique of counterpoint, where a combination of melodic lines come together to contribute equally to the works' overall melody. Come find your people.

After that first experience, he dove into performing through taking lessons and playing with the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra. Years later, he has turned his passion for music into his career as our Director of Annual Giving. Stories like these accentuate the value of programs that we provide for the young members of our community. And they are able to thrive because of your support.

“Rise up, follow me, come away is the call. With the love in your heart as the only song. There is no such beauty as where you belong. Rise up, follow me, I will lead you home.” We honor the memory and legacy of President Jimmy Carter, who passed away yesterday surrounded by those he loved. A true friend of ours and a passionate advocate for the arts, President Carter worked tirelessly to make the world a better place. Our Chamber Chorus was privileged to join in the celebration of President Carter’s 100th birthday earlier this year and we look back fondly on that date as we remember a truly incredible human being. #atlantasymphonyorchestra #orchestra #ASOchamberchorus #presidentcarter #inmemoriam
