Jon Lewis and Bill Booth, Part 1

Anthony Plog on Music

Jon Lewis and Bill Booth are two of the top brass players in the Hollywood film recording scene. For many years, they have recorded with the top Hollywood film composers, and in our conversation we discuss the many aspects of what it means to be a first call player in the Hollywood studio scene.
In Part 1 of our conversation, Jon and Bill take us through the process of being a studio musician, including how sessions are arranged, finances managed, the importance of being a great sight reader, what a studio contractor does, and their experiences recording the Matrix movies.
