…And Let There Be Music Concert Series 2025-2026

The 2025-2026 …And Let There Be Music Concert Series begins Sept. 28 at 7 p.m. at St. Anastasia Catholic Church in St. Augustine, featuring Ragtime & Stories with Peter Bergin.

Bergin’s love for early American music reaches back to his formative years in Michigan, and passing this love onto others is the foundation of his performances today. His mission is to make people happy by sharing the rhythms and infectious melodies of early American music, especially classic Ragtime, novelty piano and vocal renditions of vintage American songs.

Bergin performs in concert halls, community centers and festivals around the country, including the Scott Joplin International Ragtime Festival, West Coast Ragtime Festival, and Zehnder’s Ragtime Festival. He has collaborated with celebrated musicians Jeff Barnhart, Bob Milne, and Grammy award-winning percussionist Danny Coots, and presents regularly as a Michigan Humanities Touring Artist. He looks forward to bringing early American music to audiences everywhere as a testament to America’s original popular music.
