Marietta Sherman Raymond (née, Sherman; 1862–1949) was an American musical educator and orchestral conductor, as well as a successful violinist.[1] In 1892, in Boston, Raymond was regarded as the most successful violin soloist, among women, while noting, too, that she conducted an orchestra of 50 young women, many of whom were prominent in Boston society.[2] She was the leader and manager of the Beacon Orchestral Club and the Raymond Orchestra.[3][4]
