Cambridgeshire Society of Recorder Players
Playing Day – Saturday June 9th 2012
Directed by Moira Usher

The Cambridgeshire branch of the Society of Recorder Players will host its annual recorder playing day on Saturday June 9th 2012 at the Landbeach Village Hall, Cambridgeshire. CB25 9FD. The event will be directed by Moira Usher.

Moira Usher is a leading figure in the world of recorder playing. After graduating from Trinity College of Music, Moira taught music for 13 years. She is the founder and conductor or the EROS recorder orchestra, a conductor with the Suffolk branch of the SRP, and performs with the “Sweet Pipes” recorder ensemble. Her extensive experience has led to recognition by the SRP where she is on the national conductors list and is the training officer of the central SRP committee. Moira also teaches on the Recorder Summer School and the Northern Recorder course. If that isn’t enough, she runs a community choir and still has time for some private pupils!

Thankfully she has found time to direct our playing day and has planned an interesting and enjoyable session. Music to be played will include Deus Deus Meus by Gabrielli arranged Allen, Correlli’s Concerto Grosso Op 6 no 3 arranged by Moira herself, Tanto Quanto by Maute, and Pipe Dreams by Charlton. Instrumentation varies from AATB quartet to a full recorder orchestra line up, so plenty of variety for us.

Plenty of tea, coffee, cakes and biscuits will be provided but bring a picnic lunch to be enjoyed outside

Places are limited so please register early to ensure a place. The session will start at 10.30am and finish at 4pm and costs £10 per person.
