Sound the Trumpet: A Journey of Faith and Persistence - Hardcover

by Ron Hasselmann (Author), Laurie Ongley (Editor)

What is it like to play in a professional symphony orchestra? For many years Ron Hasselmann has regaled listeners with stories about tours, triumphs, gaffes, and guest artists. His recollections are now gathered into a collection of behind-the-scenes glimpses of an orchestral life. From his childhood in Chicago to tours all over the world, Ron takes us backstage, into auditions, and onto the concert stage. These pages are filled with tales of equipment failures, outsized egos, lasting friendships, and the joy of music.
