ASHEVILLE - Keowee Chamber Players' first concert of the year will be an around-the-world expedition of music.
The music will come from 19th-century Germany, 20th-century Brazil and 21st-century America. It will touch down in the Caucasus region of Eurasia and be touched by Korean and Israeli influences.
To be played are the rapturous "Sonata in E Minor for Cello and Piano" by Johannes Brahms, the cheery "Three Bagatelles" by Paul Schoenfield and the joyful "Jet Whistle" by Heiter Villa-Lobos. There will be an ardent homeland ode, the "Sonata for Flute and Piano" by Otar Taktakishvili and a piece popularized by the Ahn Trio, "The Song on the Land."
Performing will be Kate Steinbeck on flute, Elizabeth Austin on cello and Fabio Parrini on piano.
A second concert featuring the same program will be at 8 p.m. Jan. 17 during the International Chamber Music Series at Furman University's Daniel Recital Hall. Tickets are $25. There's more at http://icmsonline.org.
