Darko Butorac, conductor
Kishi Bashi, soloist
We head for the banks of the French Broad River to perform on Salvage Station’s massive outdoor stage. Featuring Kishi Bashi — a folk-infused, cinema-inspired artist known the world over for his cross-genre and multi- disciplinary approach to music-making — this ALT ASO performance doubles as the festival opener for Asheville Amadeus 2023. The final ALT concert of the year will feature representation from Kishi Bashi’s expansive catalog, including orchestrated versions of “I am the Antichrist to You,” “Can’t Let Go Juno,” and “Manchester,” alongside American symphonic favorites specially curated by Maestro Darko Butorac and Kishi Bashi himself!
Dedicated to advancing and preserving the big band jazz tradition, the 17-piece Asheville Jazz Orchestra is western North Carolina’s premier big band. Whether they are playing a swing dance, club date, or formal concert, the AJO is the hardest swinging band in Asheville.
Since its founding the Asheville Jazz Orchestra has been directed by Dr. David Wilken. In addition to directing the AJO, he also plays trombone and also composes much of their material. He can also be heard playing traditional New Orleans jazz with the Low-Down Sires and conducting the Land of the Sky Symphonic Band.

Indulge in a multi-course menu of the season’s most delicious flavors from Old Edwards gardens and greenhouses, accompanied by delectable wine pairings, during this enchanting evening at The Farm with a cocktail reception in The Orchard. You’ll love these special recipes from Satterfield’s wildly successful first cookbook “Root to Leaf: A Southern Chef Cooks Through the Seasons” (featured on CBS This Morning). Steven will also present recipes from his forthcoming second book, which will debut on April 18, 2023.
Additional events during Steven’s visit to Highlands:

About Steven Satterfield
Chef of the award-winning Atlanta restaurant Miller Union, Steven Satterfield — dubbed the “Vegetable Shaman” by The New York Times’ Sam Sifton — has enchanted diners with his vegetable dishes, capturing the essence of fresh produce through a simple, elegant cooking style over the years. Satterfield believes in making the most out of the edible parts of the plant, from “root to leaf”, a riff on the whole animal cookery term of “nose to tail”. In March 2015, Satterfield released Root to Leaf, a cookbook that celebrates the world of fresh produce. Organized by seasons, and with a decidedly Southern flair, Root to Leaf makes the most of available produce from local markets, foraging, and the home garden.
Satterfield serves on the board of Slow Food Atlanta, started the Atlanta local network of Chefs Collaborative and is an active member of Georgia Organics and the Southern Foodways Alliance. Satterfield was also nominated for Food & Wine magazine’s “People’s Best New Chef,” following Miller Union’s placement on the “Best New Restaurants in America” lists from Bon Appétit and Esquire, as well as Atlanta magazine’s “Restaurant of the Year” in 2010. The James Beard Foundation first recognized Miller Union as a semifinalist for the national award of best new restaurant in 2010. In 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, he was named a finalist for Best Chef: Southeast by the James Beard Foundation. He was named Best Chef America in 2017.

Join us every Thursday at 6:15 pm for our group run at Wedge Brewing Company’s Foundation location in Asheville’s River Arts District (5 Foundy Street). Runners of all abilities are welcomed for this self-paced, self-guided jaunt along the French Broad River. The run follows a route that is 7.5 miles out-and-back, but feel free to turn around whenever you want for a shorter option.
While we are spoiled with an abundance of singletrack trails, fire roads, and dirt roads in and around Asheville, flat road runs are harder to find. The Wedge Run was started in the Spring of 2012 to put a flat run on the calendar every week on a no-brainer out-and-back route. Oh yeah – we like finishing the run at a brewery, too.
We realize that Wedge Run has had a reputation of being a hammerfest. There is some truth to that – for many runners it is a good opportunity to go fast with friends. However, every week there are athletes of all abilities running a variety of paces and distances. This run is a great venue for an easy short jog, a long run, or anything in-between.
Summary:
– 6:15 pm
– Meet in the Wedge at Foundation parking lot.
– Run is self-guided and self-paced.
– Route is out-and-back from Wedge to the end of the Hominy Creek Greenway (7.5 miles). 3, 4, 6 mile options available by turning around early!
– New runners get a FREE beer (courtesy of the Asheville Running Collective).
