First Performers' Evening for 2013


Our first Performers' Evening for 2013 is at 7.30pm on Wednesday 3 April, Philharmonia Hall, 427 Dominion Rd, Auckland. 
Sign up by Saturday 30 March if you would like to play.


Even if you are not going to perform, you are most welcome to come and listen to the performers who benefit from having an audience.  Last year, there were some excellent performances.  It makes a very pleasant evening: informal with interesting double reed music to listen to.

These will be on the first Wednesday of each month and will be held at Philharmonia Hall, 427 Dominion Rd, Auckland. All members are welcome to play (BYO pianist if you need one!). Great for trying out exam or competition pieces or just having a performance to use as a goal to work towards. Informal, friendly and fun. If you would like to perform, contact Camille Wells by the Saturday preceeding the evening at contactcamille@gmail.com
