PLEASE NOTE: Tonight’s concert in Newport has been cancelled due to bad weather. We will be refunding all ticket holders, and apologize for the inconvenience. 

In 2022, one of our favorite annual holiday offerings tours to Woodstock, Warren, Newport, Grafton, and Manchester for programs of music and cheer. Each Brass Quintet & Counterpoint concert features a perfect blend of brass and voices alongside the premiere of a Music-COMP student composition. In Newport we’ll welcome chorus members of the Lake Region Union High School as they join us in song! Don’t miss out on this seasonal treat, conducted by Nathaniel G. Lew.
