BROADcast: Music that Moves
Music has the power to connect us—across generations, backgrounds, and experiences. That’s the vision behind BROADcast: Music that Moves, a brand-new community concert series sponsored by the Charles Wesley Music Foundation and hosted at Sewickley United Methodist Church. Concerts are free, and donations to support our mission and programs are appreciated.
“Music is the divine way to tell beautiful, poetic things to the heart.”
About the Series
BROADcast isn’t just a concert—it’s an invitation. Local musicians will share a wide variety of music, from timeless classics to fresh and surprising sounds. Each program is designed to stir the soul, spark conversation, and most of all, bring people together.
This inaugural season launches Fall 2025 with three inspiring performances:
🎻 Academy String Quartet presents “Friends of Ukraine”
Monday, October 27, 2025 @ 7:30 p.m.
A moving program recognizing nations that have stood in steadfast support of Ukraine’s defense.
🎹 Charlene Canty, soprano & Ellen Fast, piano present “Women’s Voices: Music of Ned Rorem and Florence Price”
Sunday, November 16, 2025 @ 3:00 p.m.

🎶 Slippery Rock University Chamber Singers
Saturday, December 6, 2025 @ 2:00 p.m.

Each performance highlights the incredible talent of our region and reminds us that music has the power to inspire, heal, and unite.
“Music is the great uniter. An incredible force. Something that people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common.”
Why “BROADcast”?
The name reflects both our location on Broad Street in Sewickley and our hope to broadcast music’s transformative message beyond the walls of the church. It’s about widening the circle—extending hospitality, building community, and celebrating the gift of music together.
