As our outgoing Principal retires from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland,'Whittaker' thought it appropriate to look at some of the remarkable things trumpeter John Wallace has done.  A peek into the Whittaker Library catalogue seemed a good place to start:-

• John Wallace's published output (printed and audio)
• Whittaker noted John Wallace's book, The Trumpet, co-authored with Alexander McGrattan in 2012 

Summer 2014 has been a period of handover from John Wallace to the new Principal, Jeff Sharkey. Today we've received John's last 'Weekly News' - it really does seem the end of an era, but we look forward excitedly to the new dawn!
