I am looking forward to the next Members’ meeting of the Royal Society of Musicians on Friday 2 August. The Society is now holding six meetings for members each year in the beautiful Handel Room at 26 Fitzroy Square. These meetings welcome new members and bring members and Governors together to share information about the Society’s activities and also to enjoy each others’ company. We hope that, over time, as many members as possible will feel able to come to meetings to ensure that the Society is fully active and fulfilling its aims for UK musicians. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

These meetings now include a short performance by members, or musicans who play on the Society’s fine instruments. This week, I will play with fellow-Governors, Marianne Olyver (violin) and Jacoba Gale (viola), and with RSM member Jane Salmon (cello). We thought that it would be good for Governors to include themselves in this series!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

During my time as Chair of the RSM, I hope to meet as many members as possible and also to attract new members to the Society which is open to all UK professional musicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The poster below is for a benefit concert in aid of the Society in 1781. I am inspired by the presence of Johann Christian Fischer in the concert – one of the great oboists of his age. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
