BBC Introducing Musicians' Masterclass special

A special programme, made with the musicians we took to Abbey Road Studios and BBC Maida Vale earlier in the year.

In our last programme in the current timeslot, we bring you a two-hour special, made with the musicians we took to Abbey Road Studios and BBC Maida Vale earlier in the year.

Five of our most inspiring musicians from Herefordshire & Worcestershire headed to London to learn about the record industry from some of the biggest names in music.

Muchuu, Tina V, Small Morris, Robinson and Tripbuk - many of whom featured in our Top Ten Tunes of 2011 - travelled to West London to hear advice from Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor, Wretch 32, Jamie Cullum, Maverick Sabre, Friendly Fires, Magnetic Man and Frank Turner.

For the second year running, DJs from across the BBC Radio networks including Radio 1, 1Xtra, Radio 2, 6Music, Asian Network and Local Radio hosted a day of sessions, workshops and masterclasses.

Other industry names included Festival Republic's Melvin Benn - who's responsible for the Big Chill, David Haynes from Soundcloud, BBC Radio 1's Head of Music George Ergatoudis and founder of Mute records Daniel Miller.

As well as the interviews we recorded there and en-route, we'll bring you some of the highlight performances from Maida Vale and the various BBC Introducing festival stages that have featured musicians from Herefordshire & Worcestershire.
