Dress rehearsal Ronald Romm (left) and Michael Ewald, professors in the School of Music, practice a number for the “Stars, Stripes, Sousa” halftime show during the UI vs. Indiana football game on Nov. 6. Romm and Ewald are playing e-flat cornets, also called over-the-shoulder horns, from the 1850s, which are part of the university’s collection. The concert was one of many events held on campus during November as part of a monthlong sesquicentennial celebration of John Philip Sousa’s birth.
