Newport Classical: Cantus at the Mansion | Songs of the Season

Newport Classical presents a modern twist on a timeless Christmas tradition with Cantus’s Songs of the Season in the gilded opulence of Rosecliff Mansion. The acclaimed low-voice ensemble, known for their “exalting finesse” and “expressive power” (Washington Post), returns to Newport after their enchanting, sold-out performance in 2023. Cantus is joined by the Professional Choristers of The Choir School of Newport County, led by Peter Berton. In a performance perfect for families and classical music aficionados alike, the hour-long concert blends poetry with sacred and secular music by reimagining the beloved Nine Lessons and Carols format made famous by the Choir of King’s College at the University of Cambridge.

Newport Classical is a premier performing arts organization that welcomes people of every age, culture, and background to intimate, immersive musical experiences. The organization presents world-renowned and up-and-coming artistic talents at stunning, storied venues across Newport – an internationally sought-after cultural and recreational destination.
