SUMMARY:Musical Salon: Thatcher Harrison; Guitar Serenade
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 and a dancer. We are delighted to host this evening celebrating the performing arts in her home. \n\nAn Evening of Classical Fusion and Jazz. Puddingstone Music invites audiences to an intimate summer evening at Rough Point with guitarist and composer Thatcher Harrison\, whose distinctive style blends classical technique\, fingerstyle guitar\, and jazz-inspired expression. The program will feature Gershwin’s “Love Is Here to Stay” alongside original works that showcase Harrison’s imaginative voice and genre-crossing artistry. Set in one of Newport’s most iconic historic settings\, Thatcher Harrison: Guitar Serenade at Rough Point offers a salon-style concert experience that brings listeners into close connection with the performer and the music. Harrison is known for crafting unconventional programs that move fluidly between classical\, jazz\, and contemporary influences\, creating performances that are both virtuosic and warmly personal. Puddingstone is also delighted to feature a selection of Kevin Calisto’s paintings at the August 21 Musical Salon\, where his visual work will enrich the evening’s immersive fusion of music and art. A Rhode Island artist and educator\, Calisto holds an MFA in Drawing from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and has exhibited his work extensively across New England\, most recently at the Kendall Reiss Gallery in Bristol\, Rhode Island. Following the concert\, guests are invited to a terrace reception and artist meet-and-greet\, offering the opportunity to enjoy the coastal setting at sunset and connect with the artist in an informal\, elegant atmosphere. The evening reflects Puddingstone Music’s commitment to presenting distinctive musical experiences in Newport’s historic spaces. \n  \n\nPurchase 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.
