We will have an annual recital on Saturday, May 18th from 3-5PM at St Columba’s church in Tenleytown. We will play some music as a group. See the music and recordings of it here. At our February meeting, we began distributing music, assigned parts and started working on the music.

We will have a rehearsal on April 20th so for those who plan on attending this meeting and the May recital, please practice the parts ahead of time to learn them.  For those who did not make the February rehearsal and need a part, select the part you would like to play and practice that, keeping in mind that that might change at the rehearsal.  A good strategy is to learn two parts just so if we need to shift you to a different part, there is a ready alternate.  We will rehearse all these pieces both on April 20th and at a final rehearsal the day of the recital at 2PM at the church.  

In addition to the whole WRS group performing these pieces together, please let me know if you and/ or a group of you would like to perform a piece or two at the recital.  We have a few lined up already but still have room for a few more.  

We are so pleased to be able to offer the recital again to our friends and family after a several year hiatus due to the Pandemic.  If you can’t play with us, then plan on joining us in the audience!
