Kate began playing flute in a public-school music program in Western North Carolina, where she spent much of her childhood. Many adventures led her far and wide but ultimately brought her to Asheville in 1997 to raise a family, create Pan Harmonia and teach.
She is passionate about Pan Harmonia’s Shining Light Project, which shares music with marginalized people—those in prisons, homeless shelters and other facilities. She also loves teaching and revels
in guiding students of all ages to discover the joy of making music and to achieve new levels of accomplishment and self-awareness. She teaches locally in her home studio, at UNC-Asheville
and internationally on Skype. Kate has presented masterclasses in Spain, Belgium, Germany and
across the US. katesteinbeck.com
