This concert is made possible through the generous support of Ms. Terry Morgenthaler and Mr. Patrick Kerins.

The 2025 Newport Classical Music Festival ends on a high note as the incomparable self-conducted Orpheus Chamber Orchestra returns to The Breakers, joined by acclaimed violinist Stefan Jackiw. Known for its radical approach to musical democracy, Orpheus has proven for over 50 years what happens when exceptional artists collaborate with total trust in one another. Blending the discipline of an orchestra with the spirit of a chamber group, this evening promises to be a celebration of musical excellence and creative collaboration, providing a thrilling conclusion to the festival.
