About Our Venues

New Phil’s performances will continue to be held at Grace Episcopal Church.

We are sad to share that structural damage to our New Phil home for many years, historic First Baptist Church in Newton Center, will not allow us to use this venue at present. We all look forward to the repair of the important historic building and returning to this beautiful concert space in the near future. In the meantime, we are grateful for the warm welcome at Grace Episcopal Church.

MUSIC FOR ALL

Music for All – as noted in the Boston Globe in 1998 – the orchestra’s mission is to bring great music to the suburbs,
and to make it not only for the people but of the people and by the people.
The orchestra advances its mission by presenting programs of diverse repertoire of classical and light classical music for the enjoyment of audiences of all ages and experiences from a variety of urban and suburban communities. At the same time the orchestra strives to provide its non-professional players the opportunity to achieve a high level of ensemble performance not otherwise available.
