Sound Effects Benefit Concert

Thank you to everyone who helped make Sound Effects 2018 such a splendid success!

We hit our fundraising goal, and then some. See below for pictures. Video coming soon.

On Thursday, April 19, 2018, Asheville musicians teamed up to perform the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album in its entirety! Teaching artists at Asheville Music School, along with advanced students, formed this all-star band to perform one of the most iconic albums of all time. 

The event also featured AMS Outreach ensembles, including AMS rock band Minør, Vinyl Crossroads, and Defective Swing, as well as performances by AMS teachers, including gypsy jazz group Hot Club of Asheville, and pianist Bob Strain. The raffle and silent auction were once again a great success in raising funds for Asheville Music School programs.
