A Chat with Adam Gautille

In this installment, your ex-euphonium-playing host is joined by trumpeter Adam Gautille to chat about the wonderfully weird life of a working musician: surprise gigs, freelance politics, playing with the Boston Pops, learning music by ear, and why you should probably keep a tuxedo in your car.They get into why resourcefulness might be just as important as practicing, how to create opportunities instead of waiting around for them, and what to do when you have to play music you don't particularly like.Plus: sight-reading at concerts, writing your own cadenzas, the problem with playing the same high E fifteen times, and why your career may be growing in more ways that you can realize.Instagram: @adamgautilleAnd then, of course, go practice.✨ Trained Musician™️ mug: https://the-trained-musician.printify.meStay connected:📱 Instagram: @Robert.Bosworth.Music👉 Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.🎵 Intro/Outro music by Robert Bosworth, Trained Musician™️🎙️ Produced by: phMediaStudio, LLC
