The Chicago chapter plans to lead a workshop at the University of Chicago Folk Music Festival on Saturday, February 14. We will be in the West Lounge again from 10 to 11 AM in Ida Noyes Hall, 1212 East 59th Street. Street parking is available in the area, or you could take the Illinois Central train to 57th street, or the #6 Bus, and walk.
We plan to perform two works together, Le Bouree by Michael Praetorius and Rondeau by Jean-Joseph Mouret. Then, we will lead those who attend the workshop in a recorder jam session. We will plan to play from Early Dance Music for Recorders, volume 1 by Andrew Mayes, Magnamusic Distributors RMP0001. All of these pieces are available for download from the Chicago Chapter web page. Visit ChicagoRecorders.org and then go to Events/Meeting Downloads/U of C Folk Music Festival and Jan 2015 Meeting.

Dress should be business casual or casual. We can store coats and instruments in the same room where we play. I look to arrive around 9:30, and will probably stay in Hyde Park most of the day.
Welcome to recorder players of all ages and abilities!
