Wind Sounds
Saturday afternoons at 5
May 10 – August 30
Doug Shands, producer of Wind Sounds
Wind Sounds is the brainchild of longtime volunteer and member Douglass Shands. During recent years Shands heard a desire expressed for more wind ensemble music on KMFA. Upon exploring the idea with station staff for a program comprised entirely of wind music, he discovered a plethora of music transcribed for winds. In fact, some pieces of music were originally written for winds then later made popular in orchestral versions.
Wind Sounds is produced locally in the studios of KMFA by Douglass Shands and Philip Pollack, and hosted by long-time KMFA afternoon announcer Rich Upton.
