When: Monthly on Fridays 2:00 pm
4th Fri
Venue: Members Home

Each month, we set a theme and share some of our favourite tunes or songs. All genres and eras welcome: classical, folk, country, world, jazz, blues, rock, pop, or anything else we can think of! For example, ‘Colours’ could include Greensleeves, Rhapsody in Blue, Yellow submarine, or something by Deep Purple or Simply Red.

How it works: A group of up to 8 meet monthly in a member's house, to listen to 2 tracks suggested by each member. Members email the leader their choices in advance and a playlist is prepared on a music media website (no need to bring records, CDs or cassette tapes!). On the day, each member tells us why their music choices mean a lot to them, and perhaps a little about the track and who wrote or performed it.
