Description

Justin Bland is a wonderful trumpet player currently living in Copenhagen, Denmark. Specializing in Baroque music on the natural trumpet, Justin is far more than just a specialist. In addition to the natural trumpet, he also plays the modern trumpet, the recorder, the keyed trumpet, and is even a counter-tenor. Oh, and he has also tuned harpsichords!

In Part 1 of our conversation, we talk about how Justin got started on the trumpet (and how he learned to play the trumpet without having a teacher by reading articles on the internet). And then we get into the first part of a conversation about Baroque music and its interpretation.
