You are welcome to bring a bag lunch or you may have lunch in the very modestly

inform the kitchen. They have a great menu.
Parking is in the front of the building if you are one of the first ten cars.
Then someone will be outside to direct you to a side street for parking. Car
pooling is recommended if possible. You will have time to unload your
instruments before moving your car to the side street.

more items to buy, so come prepared to shop!
About our instructor
Tricia van Oers was born in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. In 1998
she graduated from the Rotterdam Conservatory (teacher and soloist degrees),
where she studied recorder with Thera de Clerck and Han Tol. Upon
recommendation of the conservatory she was awarded a scholarship, enabling her
to do graduate study at Indiana University's Early Music Institute, where she
received a Performer Diploma with high achievement in Early Music-Instrumental
performance, while being an Associate Instructor. Until the summer of 2000 Ms.
van Oers was employed by the Von Huene Workshop, Inc. in Boston, making,
repairing and testing recorders. She regularly lends her skills to the Workshop
still, and has represented the shop at Early Music Festivals in the United
States and Europe. She was Director of the '99 North American Recorder
Teacher's Conference at Indiana University's School of Music, and was on the
faculty of the Amherst Early Music Festival, I.U.'s Summer Academy, and the '00
North American Recorder Teacher's Seminar. Ms. van Oers taught for the Boston
Recorder Society and teaches frequently as a guest coach for Recorder
Societies. She has performed in solo and ensemble recitals in the Netherlands,
Portugal and the United States. As a founding member of the Rotterdam (NL)
based ensemble Scarabee she recorded at the Great Hall of Mirrors at the
Palace of Versailles (France). She now lives in New York. Her activities
include performances with the New York Ensemble for Early Music, Long Island
Baroque Ensemble, Concert Royal (NYC), a cantata and oratorio
performance with Bard College, the Saratoga Chamber Singers, Vernon
Chorale, The Cantata Singers (Boston), and The Choral Festival
Orchestra, Musica Sacra, and the Philadelphia-based baroque orchestra Tempesta
di Mare. She frequently serves on the faculties of Early Music
workshops and is a founding member of the New Amsterdam Recorder Trio (NewART),
which has performed concerts in collaboration with the Flanders Recorder Quartet
and the viol consort Parthenia.
