Back in March, to mark 20 years of the Today guest editors we gave people the chance to apply in teams to make a programme with us.
Thousands of you applied and every Saturday through August we’ll be featuring programmes guest edited by those successful teams of listeners.
Today it was the turn of Anne, Moyra, Alan and Andrew who are all members of the Dunbartonshire Concert Band. They wanted to use their guest edit to explore the benefits of community music. They commissioned a special report on music education and they asked us to look at whether playing an instrument help keep your brain “fit” as you get older?
Their programme features the violinist Nicola Benedetti.
