Join us at the Overture Center for Wisconsin Idea Spotlight: Moments of Happiness, an exclusive event featuring former UW director of bands and professor Mike Leckrone and author, columnist, and UW–Madison alumnus Doug Moe ’79. Hear firsthand about the incredible experiences of Leckrone, both on and off the field, during his legendary 50-year career and the unique history of the UW–Madison bands as narrated by Moe in their new book, Moments of Happiness: A Wisconsin Band Story. The book delves into the memorable performances and the dedication that shaped the UW–Madison bands into what they are today. The evening will include a reception with refreshments before the program and an audience Q & A afterward.
