A native of Pittsburgh, Nicole Lamagna had long hoped to study at Carnegie Mellon School of Music. Nicole is in her second year pursuing a Masters of Music degree in Clarinet Performance. She feels very fortunate to be studying with former Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra clarinetist, Thomas Thompson. Her former teachers include Lisa Thackrah and Nolan Petote. Nicole received her Bachelor’s of Music degree in Music Education from Seton Hill University. Music education remains extremely important to her, and she is a proud co-conductor of the student-run Tartan Wind Ensemble.

During the 17th century, the term "Symphony" or "Sinfonia" was usually applied to the opening music for operas, oratorios and cantatas. But gradually, during the 18th century, the symphony developed to become the most important format for independent orchestral music. The formal proportions were dramatically expanded and the instrumentation refined and expanded, paving the way for the genre's dominant status in the Romantic period with composers such as Beethoven, Brahms and Mahler.
