Episode 65: Hanging With David Cookie Koch

Release Date:

My guest for this episode is David “Cookie” Koch.  
Cookie is a man of many talents. An accomplished orchestral player, Cookie has also developed a reputation for his creative covers of video game music and as the co-founder of the Trumpeter’s Multi-Track Competition. But life for Cookie has not always been a piece of cake. And in this episode Cookie gets real about his struggles and how he found a way to develop a fresh attitude about the trumpet and life.   
Check out what Cookie has to say about changing career plans, the multi-media bug, the backstory on the Trumpet Multi-track Competition, how technology can help to create a stronger trumpet community, the challenges of creating multi-track videos, a fascination for video game music, Interlochen and auditions, the importance of figuring out what is really important to you, feeling like you want to quit, dealing with mental and emotional costs of auditioning, why it's important to be open about what you are going through, the world of brass bands, and so much more.  
So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
