SUMMARY:Nature Listening and Tree Whispering: Working with Nature to Heal Plants & Environments
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Rough Point’s new arboretum certification status\, we will be hosting a series of programs that share our resiliency work and showcase the historic landscape. \nIn partnership with our friends at Aquidneck Resilience\, join us on this interactive talk with “Tree Whisperers” Dr. Jim Conroy and Basia Alexander. \nRough Point is a coastal historic landscape with more than 200 trees—many of which are resilient but vulnerable to the impacts of the harsh (and changing) climate conditions of the site. Conroy and Alexander’s mindful methods rejuvenate vitality and balance in ecosystems. They will share their secrets for restoring functionality to the parts\, systems\, and interconnectivity of sick or climate-stressed trees\, plants\, crops and forests. \nWeather permitting\, enjoy an optional short\, guided visualization exercise called “Stepping Inside a Tree’s World” at the end of the talk. \nAbout the Tree Whisperers: Dr. Jim Conroy holds a PhD in Plant Pathology\, and together with Ms. Basia Alexander\, they have dedicated over 20 years to developing\, practicing and teaching the art of Tree Whispering ® \nLearn more at https://biobaliainstitute.org/ \nKnow before you go: This tour will take place outdoors (rain or shine) and requires walking on uneven ground. Unfortunately\, the grounds are not currently wheelchair accessible. \nGet your tickets here \n        \n________________________________ \nAbout Aquidneck Resilience: Aquidneck Resilience\, proudly hosted by the Aquidneck Island Land Trust\, is an island-wide initiative focused on developing actionable strategies and implementing projects to increase our community’s ability to prepare for and respond to more frequent and intense weather events. \nWith dedicated staff\, we can support our municipal and local non-profit partners by helping to secure funding\, write grants\, manage resilience projects\, facilitate knowledge sharing across municipal boundaries\, and engage and educate the community. \n

SUMMARY:Musical Salon Series: This Love Between Us
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to partner with Puddingstone Festival on an evening of music at Rough Point! Our founder Doris Duke was a supporter of the arts\, as well as a musician\, a dancer\, and an art collector. We are delighted to host this evening celebrating the performing arts in her home. \nOn April 15th\, join us for an intimate evening of song and chamber music exploring the enduring nature of love\, friendship\, and human connection. Soprano Katharine Dain\, violist Caitlin Lynch\, and pianist Ieva Jokubaviciute weave a richly layered program inspired by Reena Esmail’s This Love Between Us\, a meditation on our shared humanity and the bonds that sustain us through time. Drawing on music by Brahms\, Robert and Clara Schumann\, Schubert\, Bridge\, Lanzilotti\, and Esmail\, the program moves from motherly tenderness to amorous dialogue\, from the ache of separation to the “ray of eternal love” that persists even in loss. \nAcross the evening\, listeners will encounter Brahms’ Sacred Lullaby\, Bridge’s Three Songs\, Clara Schumann’s Six Lieder\, Robert Schumann’s Adagio and Allegro\, Schubert’s Shepherd on the Rock\, Lanzilotti’s of moments\, and Esmail’s This Love Between Us\, set to texts by Kabir\, Friedrich Rückert\, Heinrich Heine\, Percy Bysshe Shelley\, Edna St. Vincent Millay\, and Wilhelm Müller. These works\, each in its own way\, reveal love as joyful\, yearning\, fragile\, and resilient—“joyful\, enduring\, always.” \nThis musical salon offers a hopeful meditation on connection\, listening\, and what binds us together. \nThe museum will be open to explore before the concert and during intermission\, inviting guests to experience the art and the music in dialogue. \nDoors open at 6:30 PM. The show begins at 7:00 PM and includes an intermission. \nSmall bites and a wine bar by Bow Bar are included. Purchase your tickets here. \n  \n\nAbout Puddingstone Festival: \nPuddingstone Festival are a group of passionate music lovers and artistic entrepreneurs\, united by a shared love for the arts. Their team brings together a rich diversity of perspectives\, with board members hailing from various professions and backgrounds. Some are local to the area (yes\, real island natives)\, others come from different parts of the country\, and their founder is from Europe—each of them contributing a unique set of skills and experiences. \nWhat unites them is the strong commitment to promoting the arts\, connecting with the community\, and supporting its growth and well-being.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Musical Salon Series: Romanticism & Musical Poetry
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to partner with Puddingstone Festival on an evening of music at Rough Point! Our founder Doris Duke was a supporter of the arts\, as well as a musician\, a dancer\, and an art collector. We are delighted to host this evening celebrating the performing arts in her home. \nOn January 27\, three piano trios spanning the breadth of the Romantic era will perform at Rough Point: Beethoven’s “Ghost” Trio (Op. 70 No. 1)\, renowned for its haunting Largo movement that evokes a spectral mystery—a nickname coined in the 19th century to capture its otherworldly atmosphere; Cécile Chaminade’s Piano Trio No. 2 (Op. 34)\, a lyrical gem from a pioneering woman composer of the late 19th century; and Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No. 1 (Op. 8)\, a single-movement “Poème” composed at age 19\, unfolding with poignant poetic introspection. \nWe are honored to present the internationally celebrated Sitkovetsky Trio who will be performing these exquisite works for us. Known as one of today’s foremost piano trios\, their thoughtful and committed interpretations have earned them critical acclaim and invitations to prestigious venues worldwide\, including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw\, Frankfurt Alte Oper\, Palais des Beaux-Arts\, Musée du Louvre\, L’Auditori Barcelona\, Wigmore Hall\, and Lincoln Center in New York. \nFrom Beethoven’s early Romantic heroism\, through Chaminade’s elegant middle-period lyricism\, to Shostakovich’s late-Romantic modernism\, these works trace the rich evolution of musical Romanticism and the art of musical poetry across generations. \nActor Nora Eschenbacher will enrich the evening by reading period letters related to the music\, weaving an evocative literary thread through the performance. Nora appears courtesy of Actors’ Equity Association. \nDoors open at 6:00 PM. The show begins at 6:30 PM. \nSmall bites and drinks are included. Purchase your tickets here. \n  \n\nAbout Puddingstone Festival: \nPuddingstone Festival are a group of passionate music lovers and artistic entrepreneurs\, united by a shared love for the arts. Their team brings together a rich diversity of perspectives\, with board members hailing from various professions and backgrounds.
