Playing opportunities

The West
Gallery Quire will resume meeting on
September 8 at 2pm at the Newton Highlands
Congregational Church. It’s open to all
singers and players of melody instruments. It’s
a different take on church music than what most
of us grew up with, and it’s also your best place
to sing with a serpent.

The Boston Recorder
Society will also presumably start up again in September, but
they haven’t gotten around to telling anybody when. I hope it’s
because all the people who do that work have been off having
summer fun and are just starting to get back to organizing
meetings. I will let you know when I find out the details, or you
can check their web page.
