An Evening of Music and Dance in Newport

Posted

The Puddingstone Music Series continues this Saturday, April 26, with An Evening of Music and Dance at Rough Point. This concert will feature Arlen Hlusko, Grammy Award-winning cellist from Canada, alongside Frankie Car, British-American cellist, both esteemed members of Carnegie Hall’s Ensemble Connect. They will be joined by Clemens Teufel, German pianist and founder of Puddingstone.

The performances begin at 6:30 p.m. “Celli à Deux” at Rough Point (680 Bellevue Ave., Newport).

The program features a rich array of works, including Beethoven’s Cello Sonata Op. 5 No. 2, followed by Schumann’s Fantasy, Op. 73, originally written for clarinet and here arranged for cello. Shostakovich’s “Five Pieces for Two Violins” will be reimagined for two cellos, and Alban Berg’s “Sieben Frühe Lieder”, arranged for cello, will bring a lyrical, turn-of-the-century avant-garde touch to the evening.

Throughout the performance, Rhea Keller and Katie Moorhead, renowned and beloved dancers who have both previously been presented by Newport Contemporary Ballet, will bring their graceful and expressive movement to select pieces of the program, further elevating the experience.

A cash bar featuring drinks from Bow Bar will be available, along with small bites included in the ticket price. Seating is limited, ensuring an intimate and immersive experience.

Advance tickets available at PuddingstoneFestival.com/events.
