Nils Ole Bo Johansen,
Chris Houlding, and George Wiegel, all three masters
in teaching the trombone, compare the educational systems
of the various countries where they taught. Nils knows
Scandinavia well, Chris knows England and Germany, and
George the Benelux. Maybe one of these gentlemen can’t
resist the temptation to play a piece… |
