Our April 2009 meeting was held on the 29th at the Pleasant Valley Recreation and Parks Senior Center in Camarillo, CA.  For details about our meetings, visit VCCGS.com. 

We had a large audience, and an especially large number of from-the-floor players during the first half of the program.  In fact, this was one of the few times we ran out of time, and one performer, Chris Schoden, will hopefully play next month, in May. 

During the second hour our guest was Peter Fletcher.  Check out Peter’s web site.  Peter played works by Besard, Rameau, Erik Satie, Domeniconi, and others (see the program below).
