Joan Chambers Concert Series
Nation: Jocelyn Hagen and Tim Takach with guests Pitt-Greensburg Chorale
Friday, November 8, 2024 at 7:30PM EST
Campana Chapel
We are thrilled to welcome to our campus composers Jocelyn Hagen and Tim Takach for a three-day residency at Pitt-Greensburg. They will work with our choir on Tim’s new composition for the Chorale, as well as our budding singers, conductors, and composers in class sessions.
Join us Friday night for their performance as Nation, with guests Pitt-Greensburg Chorale also on the program. And, come to witness their voice masterclass Wednesday 11/6 at 6:45PM EST. All events are in Campana Chapel.
About our artists: Founders of the a cappella band Nation, and expanding on their composing successes, Jocelyn Hagen and Timothy C. Takach are quickly becoming known for reshaping the choral experience with singers around the globe. Pioneers in their field of composing, entrepreneurship, coaching youth and adults, and leading ensembles in the spirit of collaboration, Takach and Hagen bring to the table a uniquely special partnership of lifelong learning. They can guide participants through a collective and creative journey, modeling healthy, accessible and honest pedagogy for developing singers. Choral educators will be inspired to stretch out of the box with rehearsal strategies, programming, improvisation, co-teaching, and crafting experiences to honor and balance tradition and innovation in these fast-paced times.

Friday Evening Music Club at the Westmoreland Symphony
FEMC was founded in 1944 to promote the performing arts in Westmoreland County and give musicians a place to practice and socialize. It is a community of area musicians, some of whom are private music teachers, but many who work in other fields and enjoy music-making as an avocation. Some club members simply enjoy being part of the organization by attending the concerts; the concerts are open to members and non-members alike.
In 1969, FEMC’s leadership helped to found the Westmoreland Symphony. Reuniting with them fosters the musical growth of our shared community, with mutual support, stability, and strength. We have common interests and common fellowship, but also provide unique avenues into the experience and sharing of great classical music. We now celebrate our shared roots and come back home to be together again.
