Schedule

We meet on Tuesdays, starting at 7:45pm, at 233 Broadway,
Cambridge, as long as enough people have told me they plan on
coming by Monday night.

The meeting on Tuesday, May 2, will be limited to people who
are performing at the Walk for Hunger.

Walk for Hunger

The list above is essentially what we’ll be playing at the Walk for Hunger on Sunday,
May 7, between 10am and 3pm. We’ll also be playing some Susato, and there will be solos
and duets before the group gets going, and while the group is
taking breaks. We’ll be on the bank of the Charles River, on Greenough
Boulevard, at the Cambridge-Watertown line, across from the
Cambridge Cemetary.

Drop by and listen, or sit in for a bit.

Concerts

The Boston Recorder Orchestra, under the direction of John
Tyson, will be playing a concert on Sunday, April 30, at 7:30pm at
Old North Church, 93 Salem St., Boston. They play a lot of our
repertoire from a very different point of view. This will be a
good chance to see lots of the larger recorders that look like
small trees.
