CHAPTER CALENDAR MONTH-BY-MONTH
August 2009
to July 2010
August 2008 – July 2009
OVERVIEW OF CHAPTER ACTIVITIES
2010 - 2011
We cordially invite area organists, organ
enthusiasts, and the general public to attend a variety of
organ-related activities, which are sponsored by our organization
throughout the year. Most of the events are free.
More information will be provided in our monthly newsletters.
September October November December January February March April May Informal Recitals We invite all to
join us no matter what level you are on. We would benefit from your presence,
whether you choose to play anything or not. ________________ This year, in addition to playing repertoire, we would
like to encourage the playing of hymns. If you play your own arrangements of
hymns for preludes and postludes—specifically arrangements that are not
written out but played from the hymn book--please consider coming and sharing
them with us. Please be prepared to either bring copies of instructions
or to explain what you do on each line or verse or how you put several hymns
together. If you haven’t ventured to do that yet, we invite you to come and get some ideas! Our usual evening is the third Friday of each month. If
you would like to volunteer your organ or your chapel for these events,
please contact Ruth Ann Hay, who coordinates the informals. Her e-mail is on
the front page of this newsletter. If you would like to participate, but the
third Friday of the month doesn’t work for you, please contact Ruth Ann, as
well. If there is enough response we can make adjustments. We look forward to seeing each one of you this year as we
learn and grow together. |
