Brochure - Newport Music Festival
48th Season July 8-24, 2016 A Welcome to the 48th Season Dear Friends and Music Lovers, The 2016 Newport Music Festival is a season of new introductions. First, it is my great honor to introduce Ms. Virginia Gambale, the eighth Board President in the Festival’s history. Virginia has been a board member since 2006 and an officer since 2013. She is a successful investor and technology leader, and studied piano at both The Juilliard School and The Hartt School of Music. Given her background in both music and business leadership, it would be hard to imagine a person better suited to help lead the Newport Music Festival to a more glorious future. The second introduction will be the revolutionary Bogányi Grand Piano, an invention that will almost certainly change the future of classical music. On Virginia Gambale July 9th at The Breakers, pianist and innovator Gergely Bogányi will present the North American debut of the Bogányi Grand Piano. Gergely Bogányi exemplifies the type of artist the Festival searches the world for, so that audiences can experience the very best. We have a splendid season in store for you filled with beautiful music featuring your favorite artists and composers. A 10-concert Rachmaninoff Series will feature many of the Russian composer’s most famous and rare works. We’ll also introduce several new artists to the “Family of Artists,” including four singers from Palm Beach Opera’s Benenson Young Artist Program, vocalists Michael Andrew and Michelle Knight, oboist Mary Lynch and pianist Clemens Teufel—both of whom have Newport roots—and trombonist Achilles Liarmakopoulos, a member of the famed Canadian Brass. The acclaimed Vienna Piano Trio will offer their introduction to Newport audiences in two concerts. Radio host Larry King will present two pre-concert talks. French violinist Diego Tosi makes his Newport debut and Polish soprano Lucyna Jarząbek, winner of the Third Otto Edelmann Competition in Vienna, makes her North American debut. Special events this season include the Festival’s “Rhapsody at Rosecliff ” on July 15th, with thanks to co-chairs Ms. Virginia Gambale and Mrs. Suzanna Perez Laramee; and the Mark P. Malkovich, III Memorial Fund endowment reception on July 23rd at The Breakers, part of the “From Broadway to Hollywood Live” evening. We urge you to attend these two important events. I join the Board of Directors in extending our sincere thanks to the Preservation Society of Newport County for the use of the magnificent Newport Mansions these forty-eight seasons. This summer The Breakers, Chateau-sur-Mer, The Elms, Rosecliff and Chinese Tea House will be home again to beautiful music. Our appreciation also to the National Museum of American Illustration, Newport Art Museum, Blithewold Mansion, Forty 1° North, Redwood Library, Saint Joseph’s Church, Saint Matthew’s Church and St. Columba’s Chapel for their exquisite hospitality. These beautiful venues make the Newport Music Festival truly a one-of-a-kind event. You’ll meet new friends and welcome old ones. Together we’ll make the Newport Music Festival an unforgettable experience! Mark Malkovich IV General Manager & Artistic Director We invite you to join the Festival’s valued Corporate Sponsors Festival Highlights & Information Rachmaninoff Series—Ten Concerts In addition to his deservedly high reputation as a composer, Rachmaninoff also ranks among the supreme piano virtuosos of all-time. When asked to define music in 1932, Rachmaninoff responded: “What is music!? How can one define it? Music is a calm moonlit night, a rustling of summer foliage. Music is the distant peal of bells at eventide! Music is born only in the heart and it appeals only to the heart; it is Love! The sister of Music is Poesy, and its mother is Sorrow!” This season the Newport Music Festival will present ten concerts of his piano works, chamber music, transcriptions and songs. It’s an intriguing series, bringing works that are among the most popular in the classical repertoire to the concert stage. Look for the symbol. Bogányi Grand Piano—July 9 and 14 For over a decade Hungarian pianist Gergely Bogányi has been coming to Newport, all the while never telling any of us the invention he had been quietly working on for years. An invention that will almost certainly change the future of classical music. Only two years ago did we learn what it would be. This year the Newport Music Festival is proud to present the North American debut of the innovative Bogányi Grand Piano in two recitals, July 9th at The Breakers and July 14th at The Elms. Box Lunch Concerts at Chateau-sur-Mer—July 9 Box lunch concerts are a favorite with Festival audiences. This season, the Festival offers two opportunities at Chateau-sur-Mer on Saturday, July 9th. Morning concerts are at 11 a.m. followed by a box lunch around 1 p.m. Afternoon concerts follow at 2 p.m. with lunch preceding at 1 p.m. Why not come for both concerts and relax with your lunch entr’acte on the expansive Porch at Chateau-sur-Mer? Tickets are priced from $46 to $48 per person. Ask the box office for the different lunch selections. Concerts at Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum in Bristol, RI—July 18 & 19 The Festival tradition continues at beautiful Blithewold Mansion in Bristol, Rhode Island. Two Festival concerts for our East Bay friends range from a program of music by Mozart and a morning of Chopin with box lunch. “The Kitchen at Blithewold” is pleased to offer Festival patrons a choice of two box lunches for the 19A2 Chopin at Blithewold performance. Choice 1: Chicken salad with mayonnaise, celery and dried cranberries. Choice 2: Roasted vegetable sandwich with caramelized onion jam, goat cheese and garden greens on focaccia. Both sandwiches are served with potato salad tossed in a spring greens and almond pesto, pickle, fudge brownie and freshly brewed iced tea or filtered water. The Festival comes to you! Diego Tosi at Forty 1° North—July 19 This season marks the Festival debut of French violinist Diego Tosi. On July 19th, Mr. Tosi performs an electric violin set of modern music by composers Steve Reich, Bernard Parmeggiani, Jesper Nordin, Pierre Boulez and his own composition. Relax at Forty 1° North, an exclusive setting overlooking Newport Harbor. Doors open at 9 p.m., come early for cocktails. Mr. Tosi’s electric violin concert begins at 10 p.m. This special late evening concert is being sponsored by our friends at Forty 1° North. Be the first to see the Festival go electric! Sunset Concerts at The Breakers—July 15 and 22 | Redwood Library—July 20 Specially-priced one-hour concerts beginning at 6 or 7 p.m. offer brevity and a wide variety of interesting music and artists, including two of classical music’s most renowned piano works, performed by pianists Chad R. Bowles and Grigorios Zamparas, and favorite Chopin works from legendary pianist Agustin Anievas. At historic Redwood Library, Italian cellist Luigi Piovano and pianist Bernadene Blaha demonstrate their love of Brahms’ cello sonatas.
