Tom Service, four trombones and a pianist

Tom Service provides the ideal soundtrack for Saturday morning, with the best classical music, in new and landmark recordings, and one or two surprise guests introducing their own releases.

On this semiquincentennial Independence Day, American pianist Simone Dinnerstein joins Tom to play live in the studio and talk about her interest in the music of fellow American Philip Glass.

There's more live music from the four trombones of Slide Action, bringing their unique mix of new commissions and arrangements.

And in his ongoing series, Tom meets another Creator, with the lowdown on the processes behind producing a memorable piece of work.
