Coming at you from the world capital of the flute, Paris, my guest this week is soloist, chamber musician and personal mate; Thomaz Tavares.

I sat down with Thomaz in the Galway Irish Pub at Saint Michel to talk about everything from our shared studies at The École Normale de Musique de Paris, to his new solo ventures, Ensemble IMAGO, world premieres and musician drinking games.
