Tucson Chapter of the American Recorder Society
The Tucson Recorder Society, a Chapter of the American Recorder Society, provides opportunities for people to play recorders and other early instruments, to learn more about early music, ranging from the Medieval through the Baroque periods, and to have fun. We have players of all ages and abilities. We meet on Saturday or Sunday at 1:30 pm, about once a month, from the fall through the spring. We welcome all members, new and old.
Enter through the main door of the church, turn right, and go down the stairs to the basement meeting room. An elevator is available for use given prior notice. The meeting dates for the remainder of the season are listed below (all meetings are at 1:30pm):
