Composing for choir, orchestra—and video projections | Jocelyn Hagen | TEDxMinneapolisSalon

What if classical composers conceived of music and visuals simultaneously, resulting in an immersive audio-visual experience for concert-goers? Composer Jocelyn Hagen is exploring the new frontier of video syncing technology with a new work for choir, orchestra, and a new member of the orchestra—video projections. The first movement of her symphony The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci, commemorating the 500th anniversary of the death of da Vinci, was performed on the TEDxMinneapolis stage by a four part choir, chamber ensemble, and Ion Concert Media video technician Scott Winters, led by conductor Kathy Romey. Jocelyn Hagen composes magical, dramatic and deeply moving music. A majority of her work features our most universal instrument: the human voice. Her commissions include Conspirare, The Minnesota Orchestra, the American Choral Directors Associations of Minnesota, Georgia, Connecticut and Texas, the North Dakota Music Teachers Association, Cantus, the Boston Brass, the Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra, and The Houston Chamber Choir. Recently, Jocelyn was inspired by the notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci and has created an original score synced with video and animations from da Vinci’s writing. Jocelyn uses multimodal and compositional narrative to deepen our understanding and allow us to “rehear music” in a new and unique way.
