The Highland Park Recorder Society is offering a Consort Studio in central New Jersey, monthly sessions in ensemble playing for intermediate and above recorder players to play with one another and other instruments under a skilled conductor, with professional accompaniment.

Music Director Steven Russell will lead a “Consort Studio” ensemble of recorder players in an exploration of Baroque Trio Sonatas through rehearsal, instruction and demonstration and end with the players opportunity to play solo alto with a professional ensemble of harpsichord and violin, flute, or oboe depending on the music. Focusing on ensemble skills, this will take place in a welcoming, intimate environment that encourages people to feel comfortable to get up and play. We will have opportunities to warm up on Renaissance music with SATB recorders, so bring all sizes.

Join the Chicago chapter of the American Recorder Society for our next recorder workshop on Saturday, March 22, 2025.  This event will feature music making both for recorder and for Renaissance wind instruments.  For the first time we are holding our biennial workshop at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago, and the School will sponsor and advertise the workshop as one of their official teaching events.  Registration starts at 8:30 AM.  Bring a music stand and your instruments.  Lunch will be provided.

Register at the Old Town School of Folk Music web page:

We are welcoming Liza Malamut as the workshop director for the first time. Liza is the artistic director of the celebrated Newberry Consort in Chicago, and she plays sackbut, teaching the instrument at Indiana University.  In June of 2024 she joined the faculty at the Early Music Festival at the University of Wisconsin Whitewater, offering a class in Renaissance loud band.
 
As Liza is a specialist in Renaissance brass and wind music, we will host a broader recorder workshop than have in past years. In addition to recorder players will also welcome for music making for people playing sackbut, crumhorn, shawm, dulcian, and other Renaissance instruments. We figure that the same sort of folk who enjoy Tom Paxton and Pete Seeger would also brake for John Dowland and Orlando de Lassus. We should have a natural draw from people who hang out at the Old Town School, and the Newberry Consort audience would appreciate our music as well.
