Newport Classical presents a modern twist on a timeless Christmas tradition with Cantus’s Lessons and Carols for Our Time. The acclaimed low-voice ensemble, known for their trademark warmth and blend, returns to Newport after an enchanting, sold-out performance in 2023. Perfect for families and classical music aficionados alike, this hour-long concert beautifully blends poetry with sacred and secular music by reimagining the beloved Nine Lessons and Carols format made famous by the Choir of King’s College at the University of Cambridge. With a special appearance by the Professional Choristers of The Choir School of Newport County, this promises to be a moving holiday experience that celebrates the spirit of the season.
Join us for this delightful holiday celebration as we present two spirited afternoon concerts of classical chamber music in the English Gothic Revival architecture of Emmanuel Church. The dynamic ensemble Frisson, featuring young master musicians led by oboist Thomas Gallant, will perform seasonal favorites including the Nutcracker Suite, Vivaldi's "Winter," Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 4, Carol of the Bells, a Christmas Jazz Suite, and traditional carols. Following the concert, ring in the holidays with a festive reception graciously hosted by the Vestry of Emmanuel Church.
