Carlo Fazio hasn't given us an official bio yet, so
most of what you read here is unauthorized, and some of
it may even be fiction. Let the reader beware.
Carlo is a fine brass musician, teaching as well as
playing. Besides the trumpet, he regularly plays
an obscure instrument called the French
Horn. His wife, Phoebe, tries to discourage this,
as it scares their two daughters. At Grant
School, Carlo is occasionally called "Mr. Fazio,"
due to his teaching position (usually
vertical). He's reputedly quite accurate
with the little baton he carries, so an element of
healthy fear may be partially to blame. We are
fortunate to have Carlo in the Straight Ahead
organization, especially as he offers us a chance to
return to school one night every year to play a benefit
for the Grant music students.
This photo was taken in Weaverville, at a Valentine
Dinner Dance. Carlo was on fairly good behavior,
despite his wife not attending.
