Philippe L'olive underwent brass repair training at Paxman under Luke Woodhead and later David 'Satch' Botwe (known in the French Horn world as 'the Guru'). While at Paxman he worked on both the manufacturing and repair side of the company.
Late 2010, Philippe left Paxman, taking the skill, knowledge and expertise that he had learnt and began repairing on his own.
During the early days of setting up, he also spent 4 months working with Andy Taylor of Taylor Trumpets/ Bellman Brass to gain a specialized knowledge of Trumpets.
