Karen Donnelly is the Principal Trumpet player of the National Arts Centre Orchestra in Ottawa, Canada, and a well-known educator. In this episode, we get to hear Karen’s beautiful playing, and I talk to her about her background, her work with the Canadian Women’s Brass Collective , some of her unique outreach work and her resilient practice routine! There’s also a bonus episode in this playlist on this channel in which you can hear us do a free improvisation.  https://canadianwomensbrasscollective…Here’s Karen in a fanfare she wrote: https://youtu.be/srJjP1VHNjg https://nac-cna.ca/en/bio/karen-donnelly https://arts.uottawa.ca/music/people/…
