existing and new musician friends! Just sight-reading. No performance, no
coaching, no pressure! You choose two ensembles. Each group will decide prior to
the play-in what they want to play.

play-in, payable at the door by cash or check made out to Music Center of the
Northwest, or use the Donate link at https://www.musiccenternw.org/giving.
