OUR NEXT EVENT: On Monday, January 23, 2012 Robert Nicholls will help us greet the New Year with a valuable presentation focused on the tuning and maintenance of the pipe organ.  We will meet at 7:00 p.m. in Neu Chapel.  This will be very beneficial for those members who are experienced enough to do touch-up tuning on their instruments, while at the same time being informative for those of us who rely on the service of professional tuners.  We look forward to beginning the year with our fellow musicians.
