MEETINGS

We are a small and enthusiastic group of recorder players with members from Peterborough and surrounding counties. We meet twice a month on a Saturday afternoon and a Wednesday evening.

Meetings are held (NOTE new venue) at St Jude's Church Hall, Atherstone Avenue, Peterborough, PE3 9TT (Click for Map) - 15 minutes from the town centre, rail and bus stations) - where we play and enjoy a range of music arranged or composed for recorder ensemble. All that is required is a recorder or recorders, and a music stand. All music is provided.

Occasionally we are asked to play for charitable events and we have an annual Playing Day usually in October or November hosted by a visiting conductor.
