The Newport Music Festival rolls along with one of its signature events, a 5:24am sunrise concert in the Chinese Tea House at Marble House. This year’s program includes German pianist Michael Endres performing Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 (transcribed for piano by Franz Liszt), while Gabriela Diaz and Jiří Bárta perform Duo for Violin and Cello by the Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály. It’s one of the more intriguing events of the whole festival, as well as the most affordable. The only downside is that there’s no ferry to get you there from Providence that early in the morning.
