    Choral Series Bonus: Conversation with Patti Arntz

    Patti Arntz joins Jocelyn for a conversation on today’s bonus episode!    Patti has been a music educator and church musician in the Twin Cities area for over 40 years. She has degrees in music from Hamline University, St. Paul, MN and Drake University, Des Moines, IA and a Master’s Degree in Education from the University of St. Thomas, St. Paul, MN. She recently retired from teaching elementary music with the Robbinsdale Area Schools in the Twin Cities area. During her 30 years of instructing young children to sing and make music, she also directed the Robbinsdale All-District Elementary Honors Choir for 15 years. Throughout her teaching career, she served as an organist and director of youth/adult choirs in local churches. In 2003, Patti was contacted by St. Olaf College to see if she would take a student teacher. The answer was yes, of course. That student teacher was Jocelyn Hagen. The favor was returned when Jocelyn served as a mentor for Patti’s compositions and arrangements.   In 2010, Patti commissioned Jocelyn to compose a children’s choir piece in memory of Teresa Benjamin, Assistant Director of the Robbinsdale Elementary Honor Choir. Teresa passed away in the spring of 2003. This composition, “I Started Out Singing,” has become very popular in recent years.   Keeping in touch with her elementary music roots, she serves as an adjunct professor at Southwest Minnesota State University in Marshall, Minnesota, instructing elementary education majors on teaching and integrating music into their future classrooms.   Patti lives in the Twin Cities area with her husband, Rolland, where she enjoys outdoor activities, traveling and cooking. She sings with Singers in Accord and is a charter member of the choir. Her adult children, Kyle and Melani are both very involved in music in the Twin Cities area.   Support us: Subscribe on Patreon Follow us: @composelikeagirl on Instagram and Facebook Learn more: Compose Like a Girl   Transcript PDF   Relevant Links:   Patti Arntz on social media: Instagram @pmarntz, Facebook @Patti Arntz.

    Choral Series Bonus: Conversation with Grace Becker

    Grace Becker joins Jocelyn for a conversation on today’s bonus episode!    Grace is an amateur composer who is excited to share her passion for spreading joy and writing music with the world. Grace grew up singing in choirs in her hometown Bloomington, MN and began composing in her second year of college. She quickly found purpose in the vulnerable, honest nature of this process. She has since composed a handful of songs, with her debut appearing in the Compose Like A Girl series. She has always had a love for poetry and storytelling, often choosing to make settings of her own poems. Choral music has left a profound mark on her life, and she is honored to be able to share her words with the public, hoping they will find those who need to hear them the most. Grace graduated with a bachelor’s in music education from Wartburg College and is currently teaching K-4th general music in Iowa.   Support us: Subscribe on Patreon Follow us: @composelikeagirl on Instagram and Facebook Learn more: Compose Like a Girl   Transcript PDF   Relevant Links:   Grace Becker:Instagram - @grace.becker73Facebook - @GraceBecker Known, available through Graphite Publishing  Performance of Known by Voces Solis, conducted by Ryan Keeling Wartburg College, Dr. Lee Nelson
