“The Wonder Girl Trombonist”
To celebrate International Women's Day we will today be hearing the wonderful story of a young woman, who after taking brass lessons from her father at the age of 10, went on to be known as "The Wonder Girl Trombonist". A Salvationist, this young lady was invited by Sir John Barbirolli to join the Halle Orchestra, meaning she was the first female trombonist to hold a principal position in a British Orchestra. Maisie Ringham was one of the great legends in the brass world. Her career spanned 8 decades and many of today's professional brass players were originally taught by her. Join us to hear her fascinating life story and celebrate this truly inspirational lady.
