2005

          2005 was another year filled with learning new music, sharing our skills, having great lunches together (it’s really all about food and chocolate!).  The year began with one of our ringers just having had wrist surgery, so there  were fewer spring concerts than the previous year, but we still managed to have  18 concerts from  March through December!  We continue to delight in good compositions/arrangements for quartet and this year our favorite was “Amber Meadows” by Paul McKlveen - a delightful original composition from STEP.

The quartet  repertoire for the year included:
