About the Boston Recorder Society

Founded in 1955, the BRS is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization incorporated in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. BRS celebrated its 60th anniversary at the end of the 2015 spring season.

Its mission is to promote interest in the recorder and recorder playing, as well as early music in general, and to provide opportunities for players of all levels to meet others with similar interests and to develop their musical and ensemble playing skills.
