Promotional poster for Fennell’s recordings on the Mercury label. He conducted not only the Eastman Wind Ensemble for Mercury recordings, but also conducted the Eastman-Rochester Symphony Orchestra in selected “pops” repertory for Mercury release. This poster, and others like it, would have been displayed on cardboard easels in record stores across the nation in the 1960s. The photograph captures Fennell on the podium during the recording sessions for the album Broadway Marches, recorded on May 19th and 20th, 1964 at the C. Robert Fine Studio at the Great Northern Hotel in New York City (named for Mercury engineer C. Robert Fine). The photo was taken by Morrie Lawrence (Mrs. Mary Morris Lawrence), wife of Harold Lawrence, the Music Director of Mercury Records’ Classical Division. Harold Lawrence supervised several of the Mercury recordings conducted by Fennell.
