Pasi Pirinen & Valtteri Malmivirta, Bonus Room: Trumpet and Trombone of the Helsinki Philharmonic and Professors at the Sibelius Academy

In an extended Bonus Room, Pasi and Valtteri talk about their friendship through the years after which we move on to discussing the Finnish language and the influence it has on brass articulation. We end our conversation with Pasi and Valtteri talking about their experience teaching at the Sibelius Academy, and how the system differs from American universities. Oh, and you won't want to miss Pasi's story about going onstage with his trumpet ... but forgetting his mouthpiece (and how his solution to the problem worked!)
