Recorder Players’ Workshop II

Tutor: Mary Tyers

 Ensemble playing in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, this workshop is aimed at experienced adult players who ideally offer two instruments and are able to swap between them.  The ability to hold your own part in a group and good sight-reading skills are key.  Expect a wide variety of interesting music and technique tuition, as required.

Mary is well-established in the north of England as both a teacher and performer.  In addition to teaching at her home near Durham, she has busy schedules in Cumbria, Newcastle, North Tyneside and at the Early Music Shop, Saltaire.  Mary also teaches online.  She founded, and continues to be the Musical Director of the Durham branch of the Society of Recorder Players, and is regularly invited to guest conduct at other SRP branches and festivals.  She also tutors at the Early Music summer schools, NORVIS and HISS.
