WALPOLE, N.H.-Cameo Arts Foundation presents Cameo Baroque on Sunday, May 3, at 4 p.m. at the Walpole Unitarian Church, 14 Union St. The program includes works of Couperin, Leclair, Boismortier and others, and is a benefit for the Community Asylum Seekers Project (CASP).
Cameo Baroque (Leslie Stroud, traverso; Beth Hilgartner, recorders and voice; Laurie Rabut, violin and viola da gamba, and Ernie Drown, harpsichord) specializes in historically informed performance on original instruments.
Admission is by free-will offering, all of which goes to the Community Asylum Seekers Project. CASP cultivates a supportive community for those seeking asylum in the U.S., provides for basic needs and legal representation, and accompanies them on their journey toward building a life in this country.
CASP has been instrumental in the development of other organizations serving asylum seekers in Vermont and New Hampshire.
Based in Orford, New Hampshire, Cameo Arts Foundation (cameoarts.org) organizes and underwrites benefit concerts in Vermont and New Hampshire so that communities have access to high quality, affordable live music, and organizations that work to meet basic human needs receive much-needed support.
