Artistic Director Steven Blier recaps each day of intensive rehearsal and coaching with the 2019 Schwab Vocal Rising Stars — four vocalists and one pianist at the beginning of their professional careers. Day one starts the week off with quartets and grappling with the differences and similarities of emotions through the years.
Caramoor joins the chorus of those celebrating the life of Sir André Previn who passed away this morning. He served as Artistic Advisor at Caramoor from 1991–1996. We are grateful for the artistic impact Sir André Previn had at Caramoor over those six years.

In the spring of 1968, a young college graduate started working at the Box Office to help with Caramoor’s Summer Music Festival. That young man, Hilton Bailey, was to stay at Caramoor for 35 years — what may be the longest employment in Caramoor history — and his devotion matched his long tenure.
You’ve probably heard of Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Small Business Saturday, but did you know the Tuesday after Thanksgiving has been adopted as a National Day of Giving, aka Giving Tuesday? Or, in social media jargon—#GivingTuesday?
As the year draws closer to an end, we find ourselves preparing for this Thursday’s hearty meal and reflecting back on 2018 and the nature, moments, and people that filled our hearts with thanks. The Caramoor staff took a moment to share what they have been thankful for this year in and around Caramoor.
We’d love to hear from you as well! Please feel free to share your reflections below.
