Caliope Proios as our hostess . Harpists on our program
were Lydia Amoth, Linda Sendermaier, Michele Fella,
Valerie Lee, Donna Miller, Elizabeth Lawrence, Valerie

The first number on the program was played by
Monica Ford, a student of Carol Alcorn. Next were
students of Peggy Schumacker Scott; Nancy Cane,

harp solo arrangement of The Palms by Jean Baptiste

On September 17, 1978, a meeting was held at the
Harley Day workshop in St. Petersburg. The members
present were able to see how lutes, harpsichords, harps,
etc. were hand-crafted. A concert was presented by
local artists on some of Mr. Day's instruments. This included
Robert Davison, harpist.
On October 11, 1978, the chapter sponsored an
unusual workshop on Transactional Analysis and
Gestalt Awareness by Peter and Kathy Holm. The
workshop was offered in the "belief that our musicianship
(performing and listening) is inseparable from our
personhood, that growth in either area enhances the
other, and that the quality and enjoyment of our
musical experiences will increase as we become more in
touch with ourselves and with others."
