The Gilded Age Orchestra of Newport will mark Amer The Gilded Age Orchestra of Newport will mark America’s upcoming semiquincentennial with a special program, “Celebrate America 250,” on Thursday, Feb. 26, from 6 to 8 p.m. in the grand ballroom of Rosecliff. Hosted by The Preservation Society of Newport County, the performance will feature the 30-piece professional Gilded Age Orchestra of Newport under the direction of conductors Christopher Brellochs and Mark Stickney. The evening’s program traces Newport’s musical heritage from the era of the American Revolution through the early 20th century, highlighting how the city’s cultural life evolved alongside the nation itself. Among the notable selections is the first musical work performed for the American Centennial in Newport, played in Washington Square on July 4, 1876. The concert will also include works by European composers who wrote music inspired by and celebrating America. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. for a pre-concert reception, giving attendees time to gather before the performance begins in one of Newport’s most iconic Gilded Age settings. Rosecliff is located at 548 Bellevue Ave. Tickets and additional event details are available at NewportMansions.org/events. #newportmansions #newportbuzz #america250
NEWPORT, R.I. — Gillian Welch and David Rawlings a NEWPORT, R.I. — Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are returning to Fort Adams for a special performance at the 2026 Newport Folk Festival, where they will perform the Grateful Dead’s 1981 acoustic live album Reckoning. The set, billed as Grateful Dead: Acoustic Reckoning, marks the 45th anniversary of the double live album, which captured the Dead during an intimate, stripped-down period of their career. Recorded during a run of acoustic sets at San Francisco’s Warfield Theatre and New York’s Radio City Music Hall, Reckoning remains one of the band’s most enduring releases. Welch said the anniversary helped spark the idea. “The Grateful Dead flirted with acoustic music throughout their career, until they released the Reckoning album, 45 years ago,” she said. “We have flirted with Grateful Dead music throughout our career, until this anniversary was suggested as a good reason to book these shows.” Welch and Rawlings, longtime Newport favorites, are known for their spare arrangements, close harmonies, and deep ties to American roots traditions — elements that align naturally with the acoustic Dead repertoire. The performance is expected to be one of the most anticipated sets of the weekend, blending folk history, rock legacy, and Newport’s tradition of reinvention into a single, album-length tribute. #newportfolkfest #newportbuzz #newportri
