We are pleased to announce open enrollment for the annual San Francisco Recorder Society workshop on Sunday, April 25, 2021. Conductors Rotem Gilbert and Hanneke van Proosdij will present "Confluence" - a beautiful program curated for recorders and other 'soft' instruments - featuring a luscious variety of music by Gilles Binchois, Guillaume de Machaut, Magister Egidus, Francesco Landini, Henry Purcell, Johann Schop and Benjamin Thorn.
The first half of the workshop will offer sessions for intermediate and advanced players with each conductor. Participants may self-select which group they prefer to be in and are allowed to switch if they wish. After a break, there will be a "tutti" session for all levels. Registrants may choose to participate in the full workshop (all sessions - $40), or a half workshop (either the morning groups OR the tutti session - $25).
Dear Teachers: We invite you to share this workshop invitation with your students. Some scholarships are available and we are happy to consider requests on the basis of need.
Registrations will be acknowledged upon receipt. The Zoom link and all music will be provided by email to registrants several days before the event. The conductors will show the music on-screen. However, we have found that in this online setting it is more satisfying to have your own copy available, whether in print on or your own screen/tablet.
We are very excited about this day of music and hope to hear from you very soon! Enrollment is limited to 60 participants, so please register as early as possible.
