Grant Description
Over the past three years that we’ve been at UVA, Elise Ebert and I have been studying and performing solo repertoire with Professor Pamela Beasley. We both share a passion for classic art songs, and our vocal studies have been on a very similar trajectory since the beginning. We have independently worked on our tone, diction, performance, and timbre with Professor Beasley, and have performed at multiple solo recitals. Because of our similar repertoire and styles, as well as being good friends, Elise and I would love to work together to perform a joint third-year recital at the end of this semester.

Jack Kehoe, born in Washington, D.C., has held a passion for the arts his whole life. From a very young age, Jack expressed interest in playing the piano and guitar and in various mediums of visual art. In middle school, he found a love for singing, beginning with musical theatre and quickly spreading to choral music. Despite moving multiple times during middle and high school, Jack continued to participate in musical theatre programs and choirs, including the North Carolina Honors Chorus, of which he was placed as #1 tenor his senior year. At UVA, he is involved with the University Singers and Chamber Singers, First Year Players, and is Music Director of UVA’s premiere all-gender a cappella group, the New Dominions. Jack also takes voice lessons with Pamela Beasley, and is beginning to find an enthusiasm for singing arias and art songs. In addition, he is growing as a composer thanks to courses such as Composing Mixtapes. Jack is so grateful to be a part of this community of artists and scholars.
