Musician Louis Dowdeswell Shares Developing Jazz Renditions of Disney Songs

A graduate of the Royal Academy of Music, trumpet player and producer Louis Dowdeswell has played alongside some major performers including Michael Buble, Josh Groban and Seal, and is a major performer and an accomplished musician in his own right, having played with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra as one example. His YouTube channel featuring music lessons and performances boasts more than 70,000 subscribers. Some of his most popular videos provided the basis for today’s interview, as his covers of The Incredibles suite, and songs from Hercules and Frozen, among others, have amassed many millions of views.
