In this episode of “One More Time: A Wind Band Podcast,” we explore the role of multi-instrumentalists in wind bands through interviews with Andrew Nichols: Middle and High School Band Director, woodwind doubler, and professional performer; Dr. Gail Robertson: Assistant Professor of Tuba and Euphonium and Head of the Jazz Dept. at the University of Central Arkansas and president of the International Tuba Association; and Ryan O’Connell: Composer, orchestrater, arranger, and writer.
This episode also has a chat with Scott Schwartz, Director of the Sousa Archives and Center for American Music, about how Sousa’s training as a multi-instrumentalist influenced his work, as well as our Two Minute Rehearsal Technique with Dr. Matthew Sadowski.
