For 50 years Bob Mossing has been teaching Saskatchewan band students about the joys of music, and Thursday night he will be honoured for the work he has done.
Mossing began his music career in 1946 as a member of the Regina Lions band, which was founded by his mother. He attended music schools in Chicago and Ann Arbor, Michigan before returning to Saskatchewan where he organized and conducted community bands in Strasbourg and Whitewood.
In 1970 Mossing became the full time Director of the Regina Lions Band. He currently works with the Regina Harmony Lions Club and the Saskatchewan Roughrider Pep Band. As well, he leads the Mossing School of Music, which is a community band organization in Regina.
Mossing is also a member of the Order of Canada for his work with music students in Saskatchewan.
