Trombonist Emily White with sackbutts and surprises

Emily White reveals familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light, from a piece inspired by singing in the kitchen to film music by Charlie Chaplin.

Trombonist Emily White specialises in early trombones, or sackbutts, and her choices include music by Alexander Agricola, Palestrina and Thomas Tallis that feature this historic instrument.

Emily also shares a sarabande that really dances, choral music with a nod to the past, a song from Anne Boleyn’s songbook, and a violin concerto with a surprising cadenza.

Plus, a versatile musician who plays the trombone like a singer, and sings like she’s playing the trombone…

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
