Episode 488: Standing Room Only

Do you ever wonder what all those musicians standing at the back of bands do during the concert?  This week on Wind & Rhythm, we’ll explore the “rhythm” side of our show by featuring the percussion section.  It’ll be standing room only for a show that can’t be, well, beat.
