Renard Recorder Consort will Play in Appleton Library in September, 2010


Here is some exciting news for Dr. Chen's friends in Appleton. Our recorder group will play in Appleton library in September, 2010. We have about 1 hr. repertoire of music to perform.


The Appleton recorder group has been in existence since we moved to Wisconsin in 1984. There were some interruption during last 27 years. about 5 years ago, 2 music faculty from UW-Oshkosh and Lawrence University together with several very high quality musicians joined us, the Appleton recorder group has a face-lifting experience. Since then, the group has a name, called the Renard Consort, and has an unofficial music director, Dr. James C who is the music professor at UW-Oshkosh.

Since we moved to Wisconsin in 1984, I have taken many hobbies and sport. Many of them such as judo, and down hill ski, I did not keep up. But recorder is the hobby I still keep today. My wife joined the recorder group in 2009. Now, I am more motivated to practice at least once per day. It is even more fun to play duet with my wife.
