Nicole Knorr

Nicole Knorr (b. 1999) is a composer, performer, and interdisciplinary artist based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Her work investigates transformation, change, and growth—often through the lens of the natural world. Her music has been described as having “remarkable command of melody” and is characterized by gleaming lyricism, sharp counterpoint, and a fundamental, underlying sense of whimsy.

Current creative projects include a song cycle in collaboration with NeuroArts Productions, a new work for FLYDLPHN and the Michigan Music Teachers’ Association and a new work for Haven Trio that was premiered at Connecticut Summerfest 2024. In the past, she has had the honor of collaborating with renowned ensembles such as Sinta Quartet, Estrella Consort, Brain Pocket, and VIRID duo, among other groups and personal commissions.
​
She is passionate about developing spaces for artists to share their work and collaborate across disciplines. During her time at the University of Michigan, Nicole developed Between the Lines, a concert series that brought composers, poets, and singers together for an evening of art song premieres.
