Throwback to last year when we performed at Severance Hall with string musicians of The Cleveland Orchestra!

This ‘Finale’ performance was the culmination of flutist and resident composer Allison Loggins-Hull’s In Community Chamber Concert Series. Throughout the year, she collaborated with Cleveland based communities, organizations, and musicians, like our school.

This past weekend, Loggins-Hull premiered her new TCO commission ‘Grit. Grace. Glory.’ —a four-movement piece about the city of Cleveland which celebrates its strength, kindness, excellence, and loyalty.

A phenomenal concert this past weekend in Cleveland with the Ukrainian Bandurist Chorus of North America (@ukrainianbandura)!

The program featured songs of kozaks and kobzars, words and music by prolific Ukrainian artists and modern heroes on the front, and both traditional and contemporary arrangements. The concert was more than just music—it was a celebration of Ukraine’s cultural heritage and resilience. Все буде Україна!

A year ago today, we had the opportunity to collaborate with the Cleveland Orchestra’s composer-in-residence Allison Loggins-Hull (@alogginshull) and perform with string musicians of the Cleveland Orchestra (@cleveorch). The concert, entitled “Blue & Gold: Colors of the Bandura”, featured works by Hryhory Kytasty, Mykola Lysenko, Valentin Silvestrov, and Caroline Shaw.

Over the course of her residency, Allison worked with community partners, like our school, to build artistic relationships that reflect and engage the Cleveland community. This concert was part of her 2024 In Community Chamber Concert Series.
