Harpist and educator Jocelyn Chang touched so many in our region with her courage, her vision and her grace. A fierce proponent of new music, symbolized by her leadership of the Cleveland Chamber Symphony and the innovative Dilling harp, Chang’s strength and courage emboldened all around her. On Sun 1/23/11, musicians, vocalists, poets and community leaders organized a Memorial Concert featuring harp, piano, flute, trumpet, viola and accordion at Cleveland State University’s Waetjen Auditorium, where she taught and so many of Jocelyn’s concerts took place.
Watch this video of the final touching piece on the program, Let There Be Peace On Earth, featuring five harps and musicians joining from the audience. Donations can be made in Jocelyn’s honor to the Cleveland Chamber Symphony.
