Move over Jay-Z and Beyonce, it's time for a new music industry power couple! Lexie and Jay are each working hard to make their unique mark on the trumpet world. Lexie is a bit of a rebel and seeks to challenge the status quo in the worlds of both performance and education.  Jay is a true cross-over player and has taken on the ambitious goal of documenting and duplicating the works of the great Doc Severinsen. 
In this hang, you'll hear why trumpet was the instrument of choice, why it's so difficult to be a female lead trumpet player, why different isn't always bad, why we all love Chris Botti, what Jay and Miles Davis have in common, how to deal with the pressure of being a lead trumpet, the importance of being "un-F-withable," the role of gender in music, and so much more.
This episode is full of laughs, one-liners, truth bombs, and F-bombs. So in other words, a typical trumpet hang.
So pour yourself a big glass. Pull up a chair. And let the hang begin!
