Nebraska Public Media’s Friday LIVE arts and entertainment radio show will broadcast live at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, June 26th, from the Brownville Concert Hall.
The public is invited to be part of this free event with performances by Julie Smith Phillips, a harpist who is originally from Hastings and now performs with the San Diego Symphony, and the Bel Canto Duo with cellist David Downing and oboist Darci Gamerl. Bel Canto combines lyrical musical lines with arts-based therapies. The program will also include live poetry readings from Jan Chism Wright, who lives in the Barada Hills of southeastern Nebraska, and the Homestead Harmonizer Quartet from Beatrice will perform barbershop music.
Nebraska Public Media Music Director and Friday LIVE host Genevieve Randall will interview Phillips about the Nebraska Harp Retreat, a summer harp camp she is hosting in Brownville.
