Frederick Fennell

Uh, it w- with this wind ensemble conference, uh, m- met around the country, and it was a group of younger directors, uh, who were interested in taking the wind band medium far beyond where it had ever been.

The people that were involved w- were Fred Fennell, John Paynter, um, um, Ray Cramer, uh, Bob Reynolds.

Uh, it was that group of people that were meeting, and so I'm, I'm, I'm gonna go to that.

This sounds like really something that would be fun to do.

And that is what gave him the name Sigurd Jorsalfur, Sigurd the Crusader.

This is Sigurd, Your Sulphur Suite, performed by the Eastman Rochester Pops Orchestra under the direction of Frederick Fennell.
