Brass Chats Episode 14: Charlie Schlueter

Charlie Schlueter, principal trumpet of the Boston Symphony Orchestra for an iconic 25 years, now enjoys a quiet retirement at his home in Massachusetts. ...except for when three fools like us come pounding down his door demanding to be seen and asking him a bunch of rude questions about how to get better at trumpet. Fortunately, he acquiesced to these aforementioned demands and we scored an hour of knowhow out of this trumpet giant. Someday, we'll be back for more—you can talk to this guy all day. Enjoy!
