In this July 2013 interview with Royal Colle, Professor Turner, a faculty member in the Music Department at Cornell, tells how students in the Cornell Wind Ensemble, beginning during the winter session of 2006, have played a major role in organizing music-related activities with young people in Costa Rica, including donating instruments to them that the Cornellians collect from various sources in preparation for the Costa Rica ventures.
