Howard Barlow (musician)

Howard Barlow (May 1, 1892 – February 1, 1972) was an American musician whose work as a conductor included leading the orchestra on The Voice of Firestone on radio and television. Time magazine described him as "a quiet, businesslike musician with a vast repertoire at his command and a deft way of getting instantaneous results from his musicians." An article in The New York Times observing his 15th anniversary with CBS radio said that he had "a stimulating career that has affected not only music on the air and the public attitude toward it but the art of program-making in the concert halls as well".
