We owe a great debt to those who come before us in any new endeavor. Through their trials, hard work, and experimentation, they help lay a solid foundation for all those who follow. This week on Wind & Rhythm we take a look at the beginnings of the wind band movement with one of the first wind bands in existence, the Eastman Wind Ensemble.

I am so sorry to just be learning of Doug Brown's passing. I have enjoyed his contribution to Tulsa radio for many years and will surely miss the sound of his voice along with his passion for wind band music.

Imagine my surprise when I recognized the intro to 'Fanfare and Allegro' from my high school marching band days. We played it as part of our opener. It may have been over thirty years ago, but I remember it like it was yesterday. Those were good days that instilled in me a love of great music.

Thank you for continuing Doug's legacy. You will continue to have me as a faithful listener.
