Join us for a night of woodwind virtuosity with a stellar quintet from the celebrated Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. Travel from the 15th-century courts of Provence to the jazz-steeped banks of the Mississippi in a concert that blends serenades and dances of Darius Milhaud, Antonin Dvořák and Ludwig van Beethoven, with the fiery music of American phenoms Valerie Coleman and Jim Parker, and the Afro-Cuban pulses of Paquito d’Rivera. It’s a celebration of dance and storytelling under the stars at the Morris Museum.
Orpheus Chamber Orchestra is a radical experiment in musical democracy, proving for over fifty years what happens when exceptional artists gather with total trust in each other and faith in the creative process. Orpheus began in 1972 when cellist Julian Fifer assembled a group of New York freelancers in their early twenties to play orchestral repertoire as if it were chamber music. In that age of co-ops and communes, the idealistic Orpheans snubbed the “corporate” path of symphony orchestras and learned how to play, plan, and promote concerts as a true collective, with leadership roles rotating from the very first performance. It’s one thing for the four players of a string quartet to lean into the group sound and react spontaneously, but with 20 to 30 musicians together, the complexities and payoffs are magnified exponentially. Within its first decade, Orpheus made Carnegie Hall their home and became a global sensation through tours of Europe and Asia.
<h3>Program</h3>
<ul><li>Darius Milhaud, La Cheminée du Roi René, Op.205</li><li>Valerie Coleman, Tzigane</li><li>Antonin Dvořák, Slavonic Dancesfrom Op.46 /72</li><li>Jim Parker, Mississippi Five</li><li>Paquito d’Rivera, Aires Tropicales</li></ul>

Born in Richmond, VA, Greg Greenway moved to Boston and became a standout voice in its folk music scene. Influenced by Richie Havens and Eric Andersen, he developed a genre-defying, multi-instrumental style blending folk, gospel, rock, blues, jazz, and world music. He has performed at Carnegie Hall and appeared on NPR’s All Things Considered and Mountain Stage, though he cites hearing his song “Driving in Massachusetts” on Car Talk as a personal highlight.
Greenway’s eight-year collaboration with Pat Wictor and Joe Jencks as Brother Sun produced two #1 Folk DJ albums and reached wide audiences. His current project with Reggie Harris, Deeper Than The Skin, explores race and shared history in America. Widely praised, critics hail him as a powerful, genre-crossing artist with exceptional stage presence.

Send off the summer in Roaring Twenties style with Mike Davis and the New Wonders! Featuring familiar favorites and forgotten gems of the jazz age, dancers and listeners alike will enjoy this program of sizzling hot jazz. Show off your seersucker and linen one more time as we enjoy another evening of hot jazz on the back deck!
“Eloquent trumpet prodigy” Mike Davis (Wall Street Journal) has a voice beyond his years on his instrument. His playing is imbued with the sounds of prohibition-era speakeasies, Hoovervilles of the depression, and glittering jazz palaces of the swing era, creating a timeless cocktail of American music. A graduate of the Manhattan School of Music, Mike began his trumpet instruction at age nine with Jerry Oram in Seattle and went on to study with Laurie Frink during his undergraduate years. Both encouraged his interest in early jazz styles, which led to his beginning to work professionally in New York City while still in college. He now appears regularly around New York City as the leader of the New Wonders and with Dandy Wellington and his band, Emily Asher’s Garden Party, Glenn Crytzer, Terry Waldo, Baby Soda, Dan Levinson, and many other traditional jazz and swing bands. A regular at the celebrated jam session at Mona’s Bar, Mike is one of the vanguard of young musicians bringing traditional jazz to the forefront of the NYC music scene.

Bickford Theatre at the Morris Museum, 6 Normandy Heights Rd, Morristown, NJ, 07960

In an era of great change and great beauty, the character of James McNeill Whistler emerged. Considered by some to be one of the great innovators of 19th-century art, he was a contemporary of the Impressionists and was much admired by Van Gogh and Manet. Boldly experimental and famously witty, Whistler disrupted the strict conventions of Victorian society in pursuit of a new cult of beauty, creating “art for art’s sake” and earning a place in the history of great art. He found a parallel between painting and music, and entitled many of his paintings “arrangements”, “harmonies” and “nocturnes”, emphasizing the importance of tonal harmony in his work. His most famous painting, Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1 (1871), commonly known as Whistler’s Mother, is a revered and often parodied portrait of motherhood. It is arguably one of the most famous paintings in history, and this film will unveil the artist behind the art.
