Welcome!

Welcome to the official web site of the Recorder Society of Long Island, Inc. We are an ARS (American Recorder Society)-affiliated chapter. RSLI consists of a group of music-loving recorder players of all ages and levels, ranging from beginner to advanced. Our mentoring system aids those who are feeling a little "rusty" on their instruments. Our playing sessions take place (mostly) on the second Saturday of the month. We gather at 9:30AM for coffee and conversation and play from 10:00AM-12:30PM. During our break, at 11:15, we partake of delicious treats made by our members. Each month features a different and gifted guest conductor. Our musical director is Rachel Begley, a professional recorder artist, who holds a Doctorate of Musical Arts in recorder and early music from SUNY, Stony Brook.
