Playing opportunity

The Boston Recorder
Society has announced their schedule of meetings for the
year. They’re low on details (since they can’t hire thousands of
coaches until thousands of players sign up), but the loud band has
been a particularly good place to play loud wind instruments the
past few years, and has enough experienced people to overcome even
mediocre coaches. The recorder groups are usually coached by good
people. You can sign up on their website.

If this isn’t enough to make you want to write a check, go to the
first meeting on September 17 at 6PM in the old Sears building in
Porter Square and you can have a free meeting to see if you want
to join.
