First Presbyterian Church of Asheville 40 Church St, Asheville, United States

RETROSPECTIVE 25 – Pan Harmonia celebrates 25 seasons! Kate Steinbeck, flute · Jessica Schaeffer, harp This program leans toward modern lyrical – from Leonard Bernstein to South Carolina waltz-composer Andrew Levin and mystical Alan Hovhaness – with a common thread weaving throughout. What thread is that? Kate and Jessica’s love for what they find beautiful, surprising, sublime, and exciting (and sometimes challenging!). Join in on a journey into the breadth and depth of life, distilled in music! Pan Harmonia is passionate about sharing its music with everyone. This concert is a donation-based, free admission community concert. All are welcome!
