A nosy trombonist (Melissa Brown) chats to fellow brass professionals about their careers, how they got there, and what music they'd happily put in the bin. In this episode trumpet player and all-round educator, Tom Rainer, tells us all about the Brass Academy and its courses, about how his career developed and changed, and we hear about his feelings on Mendelssohn's "Elijah".

All episodes recorded during COVID-19 lockdown via video call programmes. There are occasional technical glitches - please bear with us!
