“Having fun with Scottish Music”
Our September 8th Gathering
Now that summer break is winding down, it's time to look ahead to our September meeting. This month we'll begin exploring the concert music for the upcoming year. Be sure to check the concert music page for the updated music, including new arrangements put together by the music committee based on your feedback.
