Emmons and Pickard, 2011 Celebration
Mr. Charles Emmons joined the music department in 1957, directing Marching Mizzou from then until 1966 and retired in 1982. Dr. Alexander Pickard joined the music department in 1961, serving as Marching Mizzou’s assistant director from then until 1966 and then principal director until 1982 and retired in 2002. These gentlemen were both loved and respected by the students and were one of the longest-running, combined influences in Marching Mizzou. Mr. Emmons developed the Famous Floating Flip Tigers and Dr. Pickard organized Marching Mizzou’s 1975 trip to England, the first performance of a US marching band in World soccer.
In 2011, Dr. Pickard’s students paused during Homecoming to celebrate his 50th anniversary of arriving at the University of Missouri. Two documentary films were made. Also of note–2011 was Missouri’s last year in the Big 12 and we defeated the #1 ranked Oklahoma Sooners before a packed Memorial Stadium.
