From the Studio: Clarion Brass and founder William Berry

Verne Windham interviews Clarion Brass founder, composer, and trumpet player William Berry .  The Concerts are December 15 and 16, 2015 in Spokane and Coeur d’Alene respectively.

Verne Windham got his start at Spokane Public Radio 20 years ago. “I came in to complain and they hired me.” He’s now the Program Director, as well as the host of Morning Classical and Concert of the Week. When choosing music for Morning Classical, Verne likes to keep the agenda as broadly defined as possible. For Concert of the Week, he focuses on the best of recent local performances, mostly classical in nature. For many years, Verne was also the conductor of the Spokane Youth Orchestra. He enjoys gardening, his vintage car and playing French horn.
