Recorder Playtime

A short time playing together as a large group, in the early evening instead of our usual afternoon time-slot.

We will meet on Friday, 13 March, from 5pm to 6:30pm at Janet's place in Hyde Park. Anne will be attending the Brisbane Recorder Workshop the week before and is planning to share some of the music from that event. Please let us know if you can join us so that we can prepare accordingly - Email: ** Direct email link protected by JavaScript. Enable JavaScript or email 'info' (at symbol) 'nqrs.org.au'.**

Bring your recorders and a music stand, but there's no need to bring any food - we'll just share some drinks afterwards.

2026 Play-Days

We will continue to offer our free Play Days, about 6-8 weeks apart and usually at 2 to 4pm. The first dates are set for Fridday, 13 March / Friday, 24 April / Saturday, 30 May. We shall discuss venues and more dates when we meet again.

Bring your recorders and music stand and join the fun.

We started the year with our AGM on Friday, 30 January at 5:30pm at 20 Barellan St to reflect on 2025 and plan for 2026.

This was also our first social get-together of the year.

The last Play-Days of 2025

The Play Day scheduled for Sunday, 26 October, has unfortunately been cancelled due to illness.

Our Christmas Play Day will definitely go ahead as planned on Sunday, 7 December. Janet has kindly offered to have it at her house again. We will send out more info closer to the day but expect a 4pm start with Christmas Cheer afterwards.

Bring your recorders and music stand and join the fun.

It's over now but you can still visit the Annual Workshop page for full details.
