ME, US
Classical Uprising offers a bold rethinking of the classical music experience through immersive events, performances, and educational programs. Founded on a belief that classical music must rise up, challenge current norms, and re-envision where, how, and for whom we are making music, Classical Uprising aims for a holistic approach to classical music that enlivens, strengthens, and connects communities. With 50 concerts and events year-round, Classical Uprising serves over musicians and music lovers, amateurs and GRAMMY-winners, through our programs- Oratorio Chorale: symphonic chorus presenting five programs (16 concerts) a year - Portland Bach Experience: immersive summer music festival with over 15 events - Horizon Voices: four ensembles for grades K-12 developing the next generation of creative citizensClassical Uprising is directed by Dr. Emily Isaacson, the 2018 Maine Artist of the Year.
