Over 140 Years of Making Music

LFMC is a membership-based organization for female musicians in St. Louis. The club also provides scholarships for talented college students.

Are you a female musician in the St. Louis area who is looking for a group of friendly, professionally trained women to join? Consider the Ladies’ Friday Musical Club! We have a long tradition – over 140 years! – of music-making and service in the St. Louis metro area and would welcome you. We are a friendly, accepting group of women who support each other, perform for each other, and provide scholarship funds to deserving young musicians. Sponsorship by a current member is required and admission is by audition only. You must be formally trained (college or conservatory degree) in the area of classical music performance in which you plan to audition. We would love to have you join us! 

Meetings

The ladies meet eight times each year. Four of our meetings per year are on Friday mornings. In order to be more inclusive of working members, two meetings will be on Sunday afternoons and two will be on Friday evenings. Each meeting begins with a gathering time for which the hostess provides a simple continental breakfast or snacks/desserts. The business meeting and msusical program then follows. The meeting schedule is published on our private members’ page.
