Summary

Baroque on Beaver – Made in Michigan was the announced ninth-season festival for late July and early August 2010. The feature gives a 28 July opening benefit and further concerts through a Sunday finale, whereas the community calendar lists 29 July–1 August. The one-day difference likely reflects the special benefit, but the held sources do not expressly resolve it.12

Proposed program

The advance feature says the opening benefit would pair harpsichordist Penelope Crawford with Martha Guth and Claudia Schmidt. It then announces chamber music, chamber orchestra, festival orchestra and chorus, and a finale; repertoire named in the copy includes Bach, Mozart, Gabrieli, Piazzolla, Copland, and Gaelic Blessings. It describes an event beyond a historically strict Baroque program and says Michigan musicians would join local artists.1

Evidence limits

This is a detailed advertisement, not a final program or review. Names, roles, repertoire, venues, and dates are all recorded as announced. The article does not claim that every concert occurred or that the listed sequence was final.

Open questions

  • Was the 28 July benefit part of the festival’s official date range?
  • Can a final 2010 program, ticket record, or review verify the program and identify the other five concerts?
