“The Newport Music Festival is a classical musical festival first. But I want to show that you can celebrate the diversity of artistic expression within classical music,” said Fox to a Globe reporter Monday evening.
For Fox, it’s time to start celebrating classical music in a more-inclusive way.The Newport Music Festival announced Monday that it will present 17 concerts this summer, from July 4 to July 20. Each show will be held outdoors at historic mansions and venues in Newport. The performances will include classics by Beethoven, Bach, and Brahms alongside pieces by composer and violinist Jessie Montgomery, 18th century composer and conductor Joseph Bologne, and pianist Teresa Carreno.
