Our group meets via Zoom on the first Monday of the month at 7.00 pm. We find that this format works well for us.

Each month we focus on a theme for the meeting and everyone makes their music choice, gives us a little background on it and then we listen to the track.  We end up with a good, varied program with different genres of music.

Do get in touch if you would like to join us.
