Each year, the Atlanta Chapter of the American Recorder Society celebrates Play the Recorder Month by hosting our very own Consort Day. This tradition began in 1996 as an opportunity for the various established ensembles in our community to play for an audience.
This year’s Consort Day will be a virtual event, broadcast live through the Zoom platform, on March 20th, 2022 at 3 PM (eastern time). Soloists or ensembles may submit performances of works in either video or audio format. Submissions are due no later than Saturday, March 12, 2022. Attendance is open to all.
