For the first Fifth Position of the new year, Nick and Sebastian are joined by their favorite Michigander Dutchman Chris Van Hof, professor of trombone at Ball State University and Grand Poobah Assistant Manager of the International Trombone Festival. We start by announcing guest artists for this summer's Third Coast Trombone Retreat! We then give our thoughts on the movie "Maestro" as well as debating our top five cheap beers. Ever wondered if Stanley mugs could be the new Beanie Babies? Wrapping things up, we muse over the perks of social media sabbaticals, the bygone era of messenger pigeons, and the thrills of performing a co-commissioned concerto. It's an episode peppered with Tex-Mex cravings, an invitation to connect (don't be shy to share your own stories!), and a warm reminder of the camaraderie within our music-filled world. Lastly, we pay tribute to our late colleague Lance LaDuke, whose impact on our community will be missed immeasurably.
