Everett "Vic" Firth has died at age 85. Timpanist with the Boston Symphony for 50 years, and a name that graced a mountain of drumsticks. https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/o...-maker-dies/CPrJmXFLtDTSoXpsMhhiHM/story.html
Great drumsticks. Wonderfully matched and balanced. Rest in peace, Vic. Or, more appropriately, for any drummer: Rest in rhythm.
