Cape Symphony Presents is a concert promoting arm of the Cape Symphony that brings unique, eclectic entertainment to venues across the Cape and Islands, introducing audiences to new musicians, ensembles, and a diverse array of musical genres.
Songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Taylor Ashton brings his genre-defying blend of folk, indie, and Americana to the Orpheum. His latest album, Stranger To The Feeling, was recorded across a 4,000-mile road trip and captures the landscapes, friendships, and reflections of a cross-country journey.
Taylor’s performances are warm and inviting, with a spirit of connection and joy. He is quickly becoming one of the most distinctive voices in modern folk.
Beloved singer-songwriter Mark Erelli returns to Cape Cod with songs from his powerful new album Spring Green. Mark brings a distinctive blend of rock, folk, and Americana to the stage. His music is known for its lyrical depth and intricate instrumentation, drawing influence from classic rock icons.
Wellfleet-based singer-songwriter Jordan Renzi celebrates the release of her highly anticipated new album, On Your Side. Renzi’s music is a fusion of high-lonesome folk and contemporary soul, delivered with a voice that is both powerful and disarmingly tender. Join us for an evening of heartfelt music in one of the Cape’s most beloved listening rooms.
Prepare to be transported. Sawaari brings together the worlds of Indian taals, Arabic maqams, and trance grooves from North Africa and Italy, weaving them into an exhilarating soundscape that knows no borders. With an emphasis on rhythm and improvisation, their music flows from meditative calm to fiery complexity—always keeping the listener on the edge of discovery.
Mama Said String Band—David O’Neal, Katie “Didit” Caudill, Kaitlen Farmer, and Kris Potts—has redefined grassroots bluegrass with a fresh take that blends traditional folk, Americana, and contemporary harmonies.
Winners of Lexington Music Awards’ Album of the Year and Best Bluegrass Band at the Appalachian Arts & Entertainment Awards, Mama Said String Band has built a devoted following across the U.S. Their performances are joyous and heartfelt celebrations of community, storytelling, and musical tradition.

This intimate Cosmos Sessions brings together four extraordinary musicians — Jae Cosmos Lee and Rhiannon Banerdt on violin, Danielle Farina on viola, and Jacques Lee Wood on cello — for a program that blends timeless elegance, modern innovation, and heartfelt artistry.
The evening doesn’t end when the bows rest! Join us at Baleine in Dennis Village beginning at 8PM for a vinyl afterparty featuring a curated playlist by Jae Cosmos Lee + The Wig — a perfect fusion of classical inspiration and modern groove.
Get ready to dance as the electrifying rhythms of Colombian cumbia come alive with Yeison Landero, live at the Orleans Eastham Elks Lodge on Saturday, May 16 at 3 PM!
A rare chance to experience the living legacy of cumbia, Landero brings the soul of his grandfather—legendary “King of Cumbia” Andrés Landero—to life with powerful accordion melodies, infectious grooves, and undeniable stage presence. Backed by global acclaim and Grammy-nominated collaborations, Yeison’s music is joyful, ancestral, and made to move to.

Known for his warmth, humor, and insight as a speaker and conductor, Joe now steps into the spotlight as a performer.
The program will feature masterworks including J.S. Bach’s thrilling “Toccata and Fugue in D Minor” and Charles Ives’ playful “Variations on America.” Joe will also be joined by special guest Sarah Marchio on bagpipes for the stirring audience favorite “Highland Cathedral.”
