Description

Saint-Saens - Cavatine for Bass Trombone and Concert BandCavatine, Opus 144 by Camille Saint Sans is a true Romantic solo work for the Trombone. This version for Bass Trombone and Concert Band beautifully arranged by Dr. Wade Goodwin is a pleasure to perform with its sweeping, majestic phrases, sweet and elegant middle section and dramatic conclusion. For moderately advanced performers, the six minute work will become a great showpiece on band concerts. There is a piano reduction edition of this same work

The work of about three minutes is in A-B-A form and has a light delightful lilt to it

The overall effect is reminiscent of Renaissance music but transported into the Impressionist era of Debussy

Below is a recording of a live performance of the Schmitz Concerto for Bass Trombone and Orchestra performed beautifully by Chance Gompert and the Indiana University Orchestra conducted by Chelsea Tipton III

The work was possibly written for two viols and continuo

Works included in the Five Orchestral Etudes are: Ein Heldenleben and Don Quixote by Strauss

It is in the style of a Cakewalk

Antonio García’s “Two Dreams” will surely prove to be an audience favorite that creates a unique opportunity for a jazz trombonist to collaborate with a percussion ensemble

Ralph Sauer has also ingeniously arranged this 13-minute masterpiece for Tuba or Bass Trombone and Piano

2 by Carl Nielsen have been arranged by Ralph Sauer for Euphonium and Piano for advanced performers

appropriate for advanced performers

This transcription sounds amazing and is a fantastic showpiece for Tenor Trombonists
