Hosted by Windworks Studio of Philadelphia
Olivet Covenant Presbyterian Church
22nd & Mt. Vernon Sts., Philadelphia
The Flute Society will cap off another wonderful season with its
annual Members Recital and Reception hosted by Windworks
Studio of Philadelphia who will exhibit and provide refreshments.
*New this year – we will spend the first half hour reading ensemble
music together, and then enjoy the performances of our colleagues
who wish to play solos, duets and small chamber ensembles.
Please RSVP on the website as soon as possible, and no later than
5/22, so we can prepare the ensemble music and estimate the
amount of food for the reception. Those who wish to perform on
the recital should use the online form to submit their program
information and bios.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at
[email protected].
I look forward to seeing all of you and celebrating the year’s
successes with music!
Renae Block,
President
