Netty and David get to rehearsals early so they have time for a bit of a chat about everything from Brandenburg Concertos to grand-parenting.
Not every trumpet player can claim to have accompanied a royal bride down the aisle but our principal trumpet, David Blackadder, has done just that.

There are plenty of colourful incidents and thoughts along the way.
