Intimate, engaging music for everyone
PAN HARMONIA is award-winning chamber music in Asheville, NC, directed by flutist Kate Steinbeck and nationally recognized for its artistic excellence and creative vision.
Luminous ensembles of winds, strings, voice, guitar, harp, harpsichord, piano and percussion perform repertoire ranging from iconic masterpieces to beautiful new works, spanning the world from the Renaissance to the Now.
PAN HARMONIA shares its world-class music widely. We love playing for diverse audiences of all ages throughout our community – in galleries, churches, prisons, shelters and front porches. We believe social justice and arts access go hand-in-hand.

We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do. – Mahatma Gandhi
We have all known the long loneliness and we have learned that the only solution is love and that love comes with community. – Dorothy Day
The point is, art never stopped a war and never got anybody a job. That was never its function. Art cannot change events. But it can change people. It can affect people so that they are changed…because people are changed by art – enriched, ennobled, encouraged – they then act in a way that may affect the course of events…by the way they vote, they behave, the way they think. – Leonard Bernstein
