This week’s Inline G couldn’t have had a more serendipitous timing, as I sat down with the brand new (as in, 2 days brand new!) permanent Principal Flute of the WDR Funkhausorchester; Marianna Busslechner. 

Formerly at the Staatskapelle Dresden orchestral academy, Marianna chats about her experiences going directly from playing under Christian Thielemann to improvising jazz solos at the WDR. 

We also chatted about her now professional connections with Die Maus and Tatort, and I finally get to ask a guest their favourite Arctic Monkeys song.

You can find Marianna on social media @MariannaBusslechner
