ERWIN--Edward.

The New York Philharmonic mourns the passing, on June 19, of former Philharmonic Assistant Principal Trombone Edward Erwin, whose 35-year tenure began during the Orchestra's first-ever tour to South America with Leonard Bernstein and lives on in recordings featuring his solos. We extend deepest condolences to his wife, children, grandchildren, brother, and nieces and nephews.

My sympathy to you and your family, Sake!! What a wonderful man he must have been. I am sure that I must have heard his music during my enjoyable times going to Lincoln Center to hear the
Philharmonic. What a gift!! My thoughts are with you and your extended family. Ann Williams and
