SUMMARY:Raise a Glass and Toast the New Concertmaster!
DESCRIPTION:Please join us in the beautiful home of Kathryn Long and Axel Graumann at Biltmore Lake for an intimate Musical Feast with Brian Allen\, Asheville Symphony’s new First Concertmaster. We’ll be popping corks from two of our favorite corners of Europe—the Loire Valley in France and the Prosecco Hills of northern Italy—regions celebrated for their lively sparkling wines and deep culinary traditions. These sparkling wines will be paired with small plates and desserts inspired by the cuisines of each region. Brian will share stories from the concert stage and reflections on his musical journey\, offering a personal glimpse into the life of a concertmaster and the world behind the orchestra. Come for the bubbles\, savor the flavors\, enjoy the conversation\, and help support the Asheville Symphony in an evening where European elegance meets Asheville hospitality.  \n\n\n\nSpecial Guest: Dr. Brian Allen \n\n\n\nVenue/Location: Home of Kathryn Long and Axel Graumann \n\n\n\nLead Liaisons: Kathryn Long and Axel Graumann  \n\n\n\nCo-hosts: Cliff Albertson and Anne Jarema\, Sarah Van Gunten\, and Honey and Howard Solomon  \n\n\n\nSuggested Attire: Casual
