Musician Biographies
The newly formed Shockwave Rock Orchestra will make its debut performance during a Free Family Concert presented by the School of American Music. The striking new group is comprised of six talented musicians, including Lewis Stahl and Carrie Ann Carlson, violin, Anna Anderson, viola, Denise Kuehner, cello, Carol Hazen, keyboard, and Gregory Schoeneck, drums. The string ensemble, enhanced by the addition of keyboard and percussion, will bring an exciting new flair to the more traditional string quartet, performing with all the effects and sounds one would expect from a traditional rock ensemble.
The repertoire for this all-electric ensemble includes rock/pop standards from the 60’s to present day hits. Included in the program are Thunderstruck (AC/DC), Seven Nation Army (The White Stripes), Shut Up and Dance (Walk The Moon), Sunshine of Your Love (Queen), Layla (Eric Clapton), Who Are You (The Who), Clocks and Viva la Vida (Coldplay), Shake It Of and Anti-Hero (Taylor Swift), Lady Gaga Fugue (Stefani Germanotta, arr. Giovanni Dettori), and Black Dog, Kashmir and Rock ’n’ Roll (Led Zeppelin).
The concert is free, but donations are welcome. A food item donation is requested for Neighbor by Neighbor, a nonprofit connecting vulnerable residents of southwest Berrien County with resources and services. Donations of pull-tab cans of soups, stews, tuna, ravioli, spaghetti, or anything that is easy to heat are requested.
The Free Family Concert series is a community outreach of the nonprofit School of American Music and is supported by a grant from the Pokagon Fund and donations to the school, and by Episcopal Church of the Mediator providing a concert venue.
