Steven Bodner is an extremely persuasive Philosophy-Music double-major from U-Mass Amherst whose zest for modern music, especially that of Louis Andriessen, is the governing principle behind Symphonic Winds. His powers of persuasion in drawing members into that ensemble, coupled with his tenacity in retaining membership, yield the slogan "I can't say no to Steve Bodner", now immortalized in a facebook group.
However, it must be noted that he once said during MUS 202 aural skills lab, "Not everything Andriessen wrote is worth listening to."
