Episode 413: Stratford-upon-Avon's Loss

With performances dating back to 1746, the Royal Shakespeare Company produces about 20 productions a year from their home in Stratford-upon-Avon, the historical home of the bard, William Shakespeare. For 37 years the former head of music was Guy Woolfenden, whose beautiful music has been played here on Wind & Rhythm over a dozen times. This week's episode is devoted to Guy Woolfenden’s music, which has its roots in the Royal Shakespeare Company.
