Join Us!

The East Bay Recorder Society (EBRS) is an association of recorder enthusiasts in the San Francisco Bay area. Recorder players from beginning to advanced levels are invited to join, to play music together and to learn more about the recorder with a different professional conductor each month (September-May or June).

Our 2024/2025 season began with a monthly playing session in September and continues our fifth monthly playing session with Shira Kammen on Sunday January 5th beginning at 3:30pm, with a potluck to conclude, and held at Hillside Church in El Cerrito.

Our 2024/2025 season membership form is downloadable from our "Join Us!" page. (Since music is not provided at the playing sessions but rather is sent in advance as pdf's to members, you would need to contact us to arrange to have the music sent to you if you are not a member. Please see our "Contact" page.)

Our new season had a Fall Workshop led by Rotem Gilbert on Oct 14, 2024, Monday, Columbus/Indigenous Peoples' Day. Our next "Special Event" will also be a regular playing session for January, as Shira Kammen will be conducting us on Sunday January 5, 2025 for "12th Night". Go to our "Special Events" page for more details.
