Intersection was founded by conductor Kelly Corcoran in 2014 with the desire to bring a professional contemporary music ensemble to Nashville, and for Nashville’s music scene to more accurately reflect the diversity of music being created around the world today. The ensemble has challenged the traditional concert experience through performances in unexpected venues and by working with collaborative partners to incorporate dance, lighting, projection, spoken word and more into performances.
