CCM’s Director of Wind Studies Rodney Winther makes his final appearance as conductor of the Chamber Players this weekend, in a concert featuring the music of Mozart and Schwantner. Winther’s tenure comes to a close as he retires at the end of this academic year, finishing 13 years as Director of Wind Studies and Professor of Music at CCM. He is also responsible for the Chamber Winds and CCM Wind Symphony: his final concert with this ensemble is later this month. Read more about Rodney here.
