We've now held 3 in-person/Zoom hybrid meetings, and with each one we learn a little bit more how to improve the technical side of things. We expect to have it all worked out to everyone's satisfaction by our next meeting on March 19. Many thanks to Ray White for managing the online side of the meetings!
Our in-person meetings are held monthly on Sunday afternoons and will be led by local conductors who are comfortable leading us indoors. (See our "Meeting Schedule" page for dates and conductors.) We are especially grateful to our local membership for comitting to attend so we have a full complement of instruments and players on every part, and to our long-distance members and friends who join us online.
If you are not an SFRS or Sacramento Recorder Society member, please contact me and I will add you to our mailing list and be invited to our virtual chapter meetings.

For the first meeting of our new season on Wednesday, September 21, we will meet online via Zoom and play along with the Oregon Renaissance Band Trio: Phil and Gayle Neuman with Laura Kuhlman. Visit to our Conductor page to read about these remarkable musicians. They have brought a great deal of enjoyment to recorder and viol players during the long-distance playing that was initially necessitated by the pandemic, and theycontinues to be a tremendous boon to players across the country.

We have really been enjoying our partnership with the Sacramento Recorder Society (SRS) during this period of distanced participarticipation. To help cover the fees for our conductors, we have been suggessting a small, voluntary fee from non-members. We very much appreciate the generosity of participants who have been able to make donations.
To all: Keep informed, use trustworthy sources, and follow the guidelines to stay safe from any viral variants as we emerge from the pandemic. Our host venue, Christ Church Luther has been holding limited capacity in-person services and has welcomed SFRS back to meet there for our Sunday afternoon meetings. We have happily resumed providing music for one service per month and continue to cultivate our wonderful relationship with this warm congregation.
Let's all do our best stay well and keep playing. Music is the thread that keeps us together.
