A chapter of the American Recorder Society
Welcome!
Thank you for visiting the Palm Beach Recorder and Early Music Society website.
Our Purpose
We are dedicated to the education, performance, and support of early music, with a particular emphasis on recorder playing. Our monthly playing sessions will serve as a focal point for recorder players and other early music instrumentalists and singers.
Meetings
Our next meeting is:
Saturday, April 11, 2026, from 9:30 am until noon.
Our monthly playing session meetings are formatted as follows:
- Playing the major and related minor scales with arpeggios that a recorder player may encounter in the extant recorder repertoire.
- An exercise focusing on a particular area, such as intervals (octaves, thirds, etc.).
- The remainder of the session will focus on sightreading music selected by our Music Director based on the number of players attending.
Visitors are always welcome and encouraged to join us!
There is a $5 "sit in" fee to attend if you are not already a member.
Monthly meetings take place on the 2nd Saturday of each month from 9:30 am until noon at St. Paul's Episcopal Church, 118 S Swinton Ave, Delray Beach,
FL 33444.
A reminder email goes out a few days before our meetings to those on our email distro asking everyone to confirm whether they will attend or not. This will enable our Music Director to select appropriate music to play.
