from 4:00-8:00pm at Bethesda Presbyterian Church

Do you like playing chamber music with friends?  Fancy listening to others make ensemble music in a relaxed setting?  Want to support your local community orchestra by eating pasta? Come join members of the Capital City Symphony and other local musicians for a day of socializing, sightreading, and spaghetti.

ADVANCE REGISTRATION REQUIRED!

We'll break off into various ensembles to play chamber favorites in different rooms, then gather together for a spaghetti dinner, to be followed by additional chamber music for those who are interested.

Professional and accomplished amateur musicians are encouraged to bring their instruments, and others will be able to relax and enjoy music from a variety of composers, eras, and instrument combinations while roaming from room to room.

Coached chamber music sessions may also be available to those who are interested (sign up in advance to reserve your spot).

It promises to be a great night of food, friends, and fantastic music for players, listeners, and pasta-lovers alike!

At Bethesda Presbyterian Church, 7611 Clarendon Road, Bethesda, MD 20814 (Close to Bethesda Metro and downtown Bethesda shops and parking!)
