Caramoor, the cultural arts venue on an 80-plus-acre estate in Katonah, New York, has announced its 2025 summer season—its 80th season!—and among those set to perform there are several Nonesuch artists: Caroline Shaw & Sō Percussion, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, Chris Thile, and Timo Andres.
“As we look forward to our 80th summer season, Caramoor continues to celebrate the transformative power of live music performances," says Caramoor's Artistic Director Kathy Schuman. "With each season, Caramoor seeks to offer a broad spectrum of today's most exciting artists in a broad range of genres, presented in a variety of formats at unique venues on our beautiful grounds."
Caroline Shaw and Sō Percussion kick things off with a performance in Caramoor's Venetian Theater on Thursday, July 10, at 7pm. The program, Who Turns Out the Light, comprises music from their Nonesuch album Rectangles and Circumstance (2024)—the GRAMMY winner for Best Chamber Music / Small Ensemble Performance—and Let the Soil Play its Simple Part (2021), as well as an interlude from Ringdown, Shaw's cinematic pop duo with Danni Lee Parpan. The artists take part in a pre-conconcert conversation at 3pm that day.
Molly Tuttle and her band Golden Highway—Bronwyn Keith-Hynes (fiddle), Dominick Leslie (mandolin), Shelby Means (bass) and Kyle Tuttle (banjo)—return to Caramoor to perform songs from their two GRAMMY-winning Nonesuch albums, City of Gold (2023) and Crooked Tree (2022), and more in the Venetian Theater on Saturday, July 19, at 7:30pm.
Chris Thile joins the New York City–based orchestra The Knights and conductor Eric Jacobsen to perform his piece ATTENTION! A narrative song cycle for extroverted mandolinist and orchestra and Thile's transcription of Bach's Concerto for Two Violins in D Minor, BWV 1043, in the Venetian Theater on Sunday, July 20, at 4pm. Also on the program are Caroline Shaw's "And So" (which can be heard on the aforementioned Rectangles and Circumstance) and selections from Philip Glass's Symphony No. 3.
Closing out the Nonesuch cohort of Caramoor's summer season is pianist and composer Timo Andres giving a solo recital in the Spanish Courtyard on Thursday, July 24, at 7pm. Andres performs his 2020 piece It takes a long time to become a good composer; his arrangements of Robert Schumann's Canonic Etudes, op. 56; and Copland's Piano Sonata.
