Relive the magic of blockbuster classics performed by our resident Festival Artists at the beloved Blithewold Mansion―the perfect summer outing for classical music lovers and film buffs alike.
The Great American Songbook is to American music what the complete works of Shakespeare are to English literature: an indispensable and crucial foundation for a unique and sophisticated art form. Newport Classical’s Festival Artists will take us on a grand instrumental journey featuring eloquent break-up ballads, wistful reveries, and exultant celebrations of love and romance.
Blithewold Mansion is a tranquil, 33-acre summer estate with sweeping views of Narragansett Bay. Newport Classical concerts are set in a tent on Blithewold’s Great Lawn. The surrounding grounds, gardens, and arboretum are well worth exploring before or after the concert.
