Faculty & Staff
Pastiche (pah-steesh) n., 1. a medley of different materials, forms, motifs, etc. 2. the ensemble of acclaimed performers from the faculty of the joint music department of the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University. Pastiche performs an extraordinarily diverse repertoire written for different combinations of singers and instrumentalists from classical to jazz and beyond, from the sacred to the profane, and from the serious to the absurd. It's always different, it's always enjoyable!
