We are planning a post-covid Mandolin New England concert series, date to be announced later (based on when everyone gets the vaccine and feels comfortable). We are planning old and some new pieces! Performances will be held in Providence, RI (location TBA), and western MA. Please subscribe (below) to receive notifications. If you play mandolin, mandola, mandocello or bass and would like to join us, you are welcome! It's free to join.
Performances may include compositions from the Renaissance period up to the 20th Century and beyond, as well as modern, local compositions by area musicians and composers.
The Orchestra meets several times a year for a gathering where we rehearse, eat delicious food, play and perform. These are mandolinists from all walks of life that come together to do what they love most, play beautiful music.
“It’s fun, it’s incredibly fun, it’s thrilling … It gets your blood moving … it’s not just nine adults sitting in a room staring at notes on a page, it’s nine adults present together, breathing and listening and playing and singing. It’s a very beautiful thing.”
If your ensemble would like to become a member of Mandolin New England, contact us. You will be added to the mailing list and invited to attend open concerts and other events.
