Meet the Team

The festival owes its existence to the invaluable partnership of Joe Hagen (violist and composer), Natalie Pang (pianist), Collin Holloway (guitarist), and Luke Benedict (pianist and composer). Their collaborative efforts, honed during their time together at the Eastman School of Music, have been instrumental in bringing Off the Dock to fruition. As frequent collaborators, they have shared the stage in numerous projects and concerts, showcasing their remarkable synergy and passion for music.
