Jocelyn
Hagen (b.1980), a native of Valley City, North Dakota, composes music
that has been described as “dramatic and deeply moving” (Star
Tribune, Minneapolis/St. Paul). Her first forays into composition were
via songwriting, and this is very evident in her work. Her music is
melodically driven, boldly beautiful, and intricately crafted. Since
her graduation from St. Olaf College in 2003, Jocelyn has received
over 20 commissions, 30 premieres, and 80 performances.
