Mar 20, 2015, 04:31 PM

Jazz FM and Yamaha UK have teamed up to offer lapsed musicians a unique once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be professionally coached by Pete Long, Musical Director of The Ronnie Scott's Big Band, and then perform a set as part of the Replay Big Band at Jazz FM's Love Supreme Festival in July!

We are looking for adult amateurs who have played saxophone, trumpet or trombone. Successful applicants will be invited to a series of rehearsals, including at Yamaha Music London, Yamaha's own flagship store in central London. Following this these musicians will then go on to perform at Love Supreme with the Replay Big Band that includes leading professional musicians in the UK jazz industry.

Here Nigel Williams speaks to James Pearson and Pete Tong about what they are looking for in the applicants. Find out more and apply at Www.jazzfm.com/replayers
