Two events are planned for February 2015. (Dates have been corrected.)
1. We will be at the University of Chicago on Feb 14 for their annual Folk Music Festival. Those members who have signed up can find the music on our download page.
2. Our monthly meeting on Feb 15 welcomes Andrew Schulz who plans to offer “A Hapsburger Valentine: 16th and 17th century music from Madrid, Naples, and Vienna.”
Keep April 18th on your calendar for our Annual Workshop.
Lisette Kielson returns for our January 18 meeting, with the theme “Greatest Hits from the Baroque and Beyond: famed greatest hits and lesser-known treats.”
Below is a link to our newsletter for January.
Here are some pictures from the concert. One of the occupational hazards of conducting is only getting a picture of your back! Thank you Lisette Kielson for leading us.
It’s a busy weekend for chapter members. Tomorrow, Dec. 20th members will be playing a holiday concert at the Oak Park library. We will perform at 11:00. The library is at 834 Lake Street in the suburb.

On December 21st we will have our annual yuletide concert as part of our December meeting followed by group playing. Please let Mark Dawson or Ben Eisenstein know if you would like to perform, and provide the name of the pieces, the composer, and the names of the members of your group.
