Welcome to Celtic to Classical!
(posted August 1st, 2026)
What a memorable week! These past few days, our southern Delaware audiences enjoyed the extraordinary music making of Trio Barclay, alongside a breathtaking recital by cellist Jonah Kim and pianist Sean Kennard. Four concerts, one masterclass, and one recording session later, that’s a “wrap” for week 1! See you in August for week two - the schedule is below. Thanks to our extraordinary hosts: Avenue United Methodist, Epworth United Methodist, St. Martha’s Episcopal, and for the first time this year, St. Peter’s Episcopal in Lewes!

Soprano Kristin Renee Young, flutist Pam Pecko Smith, pianist Ya-Jhu Yang, and violinist Sheridan Seyfried

2026 Featured Artists
Trio Barclay consists of Sean Kennard (piano), Dennis Kim (violin), and Jonah Kim (cello). Founded in 2021, the group is the outgrowth of years of collaboration between its members, including at Celtic to Classical from 2016-2018! Bringing all three musicians back this summer is a “full circle” kind of feeling for us - we were so glad to be able to share their artistry with you.
Kristin Renee Young (soprano), Pam Pecko Smith (flute), Ya-Jhu Yang (piano), and Sheridan Seyfried (violin) will offer a varied program of classics, vocal works, original music, and Celtic fiddling. Kristin is a rising opera star based in Brooklyn, while Pam has an active professional career in London. They join C2C founders Ya-Jhu and Sheridan for an exciting program in August!
Celtic to Classical thanks their supporters!
