For this episode, we were joined by internationally acclaimed trumpet player Chris Coletti. Chris is most well known for his ten years of playing with the famous Canadian Brass which he left in 2019. More recently, he has become an Assistant Professor at Ithaca College School of Music.

In the episode, we discussed many topics music and otherwise. We talked about what it was like performing and touring with Canadian Brass as well as teaching life in his new position at Ithaca College. But Chris is also geeky about tons of other topics, so we also talked about astrophysics, specialty coffee, quantum mechanics, consciousness, and many other areas of interest to us.

Because this episode was so long, we separated it into two parts. Be on the lookout for part 2 next week where we go into more detail about trumpet playing and trumpet pedagogy.
