Schubertiade— Sunday, April 9, 3 p.m.

We will hold our first Friends Memorial Schubertiade. A music salon in which people can come to play or sing whatever they feel like. It will last until everyone has had a chance to perform. A Schubertiade is not a recital or a concert. Franz Schubert used to have his friends come over to his place just to make music, whatever they wished to play, new compositions, well known songs, etc. It is a bit like karoke' without the use of recording devices. All kinds of music, all kinds of fun. Just come, play, sing, or only listen.

If you weren't able to attend Sunday's discussion Brian and Rhea Graham and other guests, please take a chance to watch the recorded broadcast.
