Camerata New England

Working Together

The benefits of music are indisputable, immediate, and lifelong. Hearing music as it was meant to be played, performed by experienced, professional musicians is a life-enhancing experience. But limited local resources can make it difficult for people who don’t live in a cultural center to attend live performances of classical music.

Camerata New England is committed to providing this important part of our culture to the people of New Hampshire, New England, and beyond. We are already working with schools, community groups, and other arts organizations to provide access.

Partnerships

Outreach

Camerata New England is dedicated to working in partnership with other arts organizations and with schools to bring relevant and accessible musical experiences to young people. Large and small groups of musicians can perform for students in public schools. Students are introduced to orchestral chamber repertoire, a variety of string instruments and how they are played, and professional musicians who can provide insight into their working lives.Our previous outreach programs have been highly successful and we have been asked to return and build on these programs.

A sampling of our outreach programs include:

A partnership with the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire and the Great North Woods Committee for the Arts to present hands-on learning opportunities at elementary schools in Northern New Hampshire, in conjunction with nearby Camerata New England performances.

Backstage experiences for students at the Eagle Hill School (an independent school for children in grades 8-12 with learning differences) working with professional musicians and learning about concert production, in conjunction with a performance at the Center at Eagle Hill in Hardwick, MA.

Oon-stage opportunity for high-school age performers from the Upper Valley to perform with Camerata New England at the Lebanon Opera House.
