In this episode, we talk to friend and trumpet colleague Stephen McLean. Stephen is currently pursuing his Doctor of Musical Arts at Stony Brook University, and he's also beginning his teacher certification for Alexander Technique this year.

And like us, Stephen is also an avid meditator and is geeky about philosophy and psychology. So our conversation centered around the intersection of music, meaning, and mindfulness. What makes music meaningful? Does examining the meaning of music spoil the magic of how it works? And why does music uniquely affect our psychology?
