Jonathan Agnew will be forever associated with cricket and Test Match Special. The first men’s Test of the summer starts in June.

However he has now become a euphonium player in the Melton brass band in Leicestershire.

The Today Programme (18th May) interviewed Aggers about it and to close the programme out he played a few bars of Jerusalem.

While it may not have been quite pitch perfect as it were, the tune was recognisable. From 2.55 at the link below
