Who says classical music can’t be cool? Sybarite5 certainly doesn’t. The classically trained string quintet has achieved rock-star status through electrifying performances since their debut at the Aspen Music Festival.
Equally comfortable with classical and contemporary selections, Sybarite5 created the project “Look Back, Move Forward,” inspired J.S. Bach’s solo suites, with a different contemporary composer writing each of the six movements.
Radiohead arrangements, Piazzolla tangos and Dan Visconti’s “Hitchhiker’s Tales” round out a thoroughly modern classical performance.

One of the greatest bands in rock and roll history, Huey Lewis and the News are still going strong 37 years after their founding. Lewis’ rich vocals bring classic hits such as “Heart of Rock and Roll,” “Stuck with You” and “Workin’ for a Living’” to life on stage at Interlochen’s own Kresge Auditorium.
The show also features a blues twist as Lewis takes a turn on harmonica and several acapella arrangements of early-rock standards.
Huey Lewis and The News are truly one of America’s great rock & roll bands. As they enter their 36th year together, their contagious brand of music has outlasted countless trends, and is as fresh today as ever. Formed from two rival Bay Area bands in 1979, they continue to thrill audiences worldwide, selling over 20 million albums in the process, earning them the right to mark their place on the pop history map.
