June 13 and July 25 - players continued playing delightful rounds and a range of traditional and modern pieces.
Again, Anne's backyard provided sun or shade surrounded by the array of flora that our unusual heat couldn't beat. Thank you as well, to our performers who played some Handel and Telemann!

We lament that indoor workshops and other events
were few & far between. With Alberta's re-opening,
we look forward to a more regular season; feel free to come along.

Play a duet. Record one part, then play the second part along with your own recording! If you need some music, we recommend the collection by Steve Hendricks. It is easy to find two part pieces because the selections all list the number of parts. The level of difficulty is varied, so you will have to check that out for yourself, as well as sorting out the best instrument to play for each part.

Check out Recorder Dots https://recorderdots.com This site was created by James Howard Young: I provide custom scores and parts for recorder players. Download parts and interact with the built-in mixer that allows you to mute the part you are playing and play along with the others in real time. The mixer works on all devices and requires no special software. Join now for just $5 a month. Your support allows me to keep making unique arrangements for recorder. Try a demo first. You can see his incredible work on You Tube.

Kudos: "Thanks also to members of the Edmonton Recorder Society for being the first group of people to play through the score and show me how awesome and fun it would be to perform this piece live." Quote from Racheal Cogan, composer and workshop leader (March 2015) To read more and hear the piece: Music for a Cavern
