February 2023 Newsletter

Dear Early Music Friends,

Happy day of rest, hopefully for many of us, before the beginning of a new week! Here’s the latest from SRS. I’m looking forward to February’s meeting. As the child of an organist, playing Bach and Buxtehude while being conducted by an organist seems like a great idea! And pipe organs often have a set of blockflute (recorder) pipes as part of many registration options. See you on February 7th!

Dear Recorder Friends,
Here’s the latest newsletter. Please note the information about the December chapter meeting. We hope to have a good turnout! If you don’t receive the link for the music PDFs and you’d like to come, please let me know and I’ll pass on your request. We’re feeling the spirit of the season and hope you are too! Playing together is the best way to share those good feelings. See you on the 6th!

October 2022 Newsletter

Dear Early Music friends,

Here’s the newsletter for October. I hope everyone is enjoying the fall and the arrival (hopefully, soon!) of cooler weather. We have 11 official members as of the last time I spoke to our treasurer, Dori$. If you’ve been putting off joining, here’s a good opportunity. Attached to this email is a membership form. Fill it out, write a check, toss them both in an envelope, and toss the envelope in the mail. Done!

In the Letter from the Editor, I have included a link to one of the most beautiful YouTube videos I have ever seen: Bach in an 11th century priory in the Pyrenees:

See you on October 4th, Patty Johnson, SRS newsletter editor

June 2020 Newsletter

Dear Early Music friends,

Here’s the June newsletter. We have decided to have our June meeting in person! Hooray! We are meeting on Saturday (not our usual Tuesday), June 18th at 6:45 at the Friends Meetinghouse, 890 57th Street. We don’t have an official conductor for this meeting, so please bring ten copies of something you’d like to play as a group. We anticipate doing a bit of socializing, so please also bring some sort of finger food (Cookies? Crackers/cheese? Veggies?) Note: Vaccinations and one booster are required for the Meetinghouse.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

March 2022 Newsletter

Dear Early Music Friends,

Here’s the latest news, hot off the press!  We have a meeting coming right up on March 1st with a favorite, Hanneke van Proosdij.  There are lots of interesting concerts and workshops listed in this edition; be sure to check it out!

You might like Glen Shannon’s “Music of the Sixties” workshop. This is something very different from the usual workshop.

Hope to see you on March 1st!
As Glen would say, Stay groovy!
