Who we are
Brasstown Concert Association has been bringing world-class music to the heart of Western North Carolina since 1974. Born from a shared love of music, community, and the arts, we are a volunteer-led nonprofit committed to making high-quality classical and chamber performances accessible to all.
Each season, we host a carefully curated series of concerts featuring renowned artists from around the globe—right here in the intimate setting of the John C. Campbell Folk School. Surrounded by mountain beauty and supported by a dedicated local audience, we celebrate the power of music to connect, inspire, and enrich our community.
