Yes, I’m playing with a group that predates even harpsichord use! My good friends in The Goliards talked me into playing the sinfonye for their next performance. After all, it has keys, and who could pass up the opportunity to perform works by Hildegard of Bingen, and then the powerful Latin Sybils, that describe The Final Judgement.

So, I quickly learned to play the two new little beasties. It’s amazing to play instruments that fit into modest sized bags. I can carry two at once. Amazing!

Come experience an amazing program!
