Summary

The 2009 Baroque on Beaver was listed for 30 July–2 August as a classical-music festival with small ensembles, orchestra, and chorus. The published calendar places the announced performances at Gillingham Auditorium, the Community Center, and Holy Cross Hall, and says Martha Guth was scheduled to perform on the final three days.1

Education and organization

A separate May report calls BICAA the nonprofit sponsor. It says the association had supported string instruction during the school year and expected festival musicians to give instruction and an informal performance for interested local and visiting students.2 These are statements of planned work, and this article does not convert them into a completed roster or attendance record.

Open questions

  • Did all announced concerts and instruction occur as scheduled?
  • Which artists, students, and venues can be confirmed through final programs or local institutional records?
