Episode 741, Strike the Harp and Join the Chorus

It's our pleasure to start broadcasting seasonal episodes featuring Holiday music played by small ensembles. You may even be playing, or singing, in an ensemble this season and thus know first hand how much fun and rewarding it can be. We here at Wind & Rhythm play in an assortment of bands and ensembles as well. So thank you for joining us, during this wonderfully busy season, right here at the gathering place for people who love band music.
