Dr. Jessica Butler (Assistant Professor of Low Brass and Musicology at Southern Illinois University Carbondale) and Dr. Jonathan Allen (Assistant Professor of Trombone, University of Iowa) talk about stuff. We talk about things that inspire us. From goals to experiences to mentors to books and more. We always have a challenge that we take on between episodes and invite the listeners to do the challenge with us and tell us what you think! We both play and teach the trombone, but it's secondary. It's.... trombone....ish.
