Meridian Herald is an Atlanta organization that combines music, history, literature, science and spirituality. Their principal performance medium is the Meridian Chorale, conducted by Dr. Steven Darcy. “Confluence 2022” is a week-long event presented by Meridian Herald, and from Sept. 10-17, they will host several events with a focus on environmental justice and climate change through the lens of the arts.
A new oratorio by composer Steven Darcy will premier at Symphony Hall on Saturday evening. To talk about their contributions, three “Confluence 2022” participants joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom, including renowned author and contributing opinion writer for the New York Times Margaret Renkl, Georgia-based award-winning author Janisse Ray, and the celebrated Atlanta-based actor and retired Emory professor Brenda Bynum.
