The Blue Ridge Orchestra introduces its 25th Anniversary Season with two performances of “Finding Home.”This series debuts new Music Director, Dr. Emily Mariko Eng.
The Blue Ridge Orchestra had originally planned to perform “Finding Home” for the season opening in October. In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we have rescheduled our “Finding Home” performances to December, in recognition of the heroic and tireless efforts of our region, our state, and our country, to rally around rebuilding and restoring our beloved home of Asheville and Western North Carolina.
Please join the Blue Ridge Orchestra for this tribute, in two 3:00 pm concerts: on Saturday, December 7th in Charles Beall Auditorium of Haywood Community College; and on Sunday, December 8th in Lipinsky Auditorium, UNC Asheville. Finding Home elicits the many emotions that accompany life’s journey and explorations. Experiencing the magic of both urban and rural environments, far away destinations, and the familiarity of home, this concert will include Quinn Mason’s Inner City Rhapsody, Copland’s Letter from Home, Gershwin’s

The Blue Ridge Orchestra has played across Western North Carolina since 1999. This all-volunteer ensemble performs a variety of orchestral music in schools, churches, concert halls, and music clubs.
