The Flanders quartet

performed in Syracuse, New York, on Saturday, November 17. Actually, they were a trio, as one of the members had broken his leg and couldn't perform. Here's a shot of some of the instruments. The concert was great, BTW.

Ensemble performance in December

We will be performing Christmas music at St. Catherine of Siena Church in Ithaca on December 15 at 1:30 pm to benefit the Ithaca Kitchen Cupboard. We hope you will come! 

Bloom Early Music Workshop

What a wonderful Labor Day weekend treat! BEMW is a casual yet intensive workshop for winds, strings and voices. Many thanks to Dwayne Heisler, who sponsors it at his house in Catawissa, PA. Our teachers, Larry Lipnik, Lisle Kuhlbach, and Jodie Miller, were so knowledgeable and inspiring. The music was gorgeous, and the attendees were friendly and fun to hang out with. I can't think of a better way to play music.
