A simple arrangement of the classic Herbie Hancock "cool" tune. The melody get's passed around the quartet and allows for improvisation, with a Bass Trombone and 1st Trombone solo in the middle. Aimed at amateur ensembles with an intermediate range, with solos that explore the harmony of the tune without getting too crazy.

As recorded by Super Bone on YouTube.

"Bohemian Rhapsody" is a song composed in 1975 by Freddie Mercury, a member of the British band Queen and included on their album A Night at the Opera. This song has no chorus. In it, Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor and Brian May sing in the middle, high and low tones respectively. This version was written for instrumental quartet adapted to be faithful to the original version, ideal for intermediate to experienced beginners. It has the same length as the original recording and the ideal tonality to perform without the need for lyrics.

These TWO SUITES were composed in response to a request form Heini Schneebeli, the musical director of ?TROMBONANZA 2017?. Santa Fe in Argentina is the backdrop for this exciting annual event involving many hundreds of student and professional players.

The FIRST SUITE has three movements and is intended for a trio of younger tenor trombonists working with a teacher on bass trombone who will add richness and depth to the ensemble sound.

It is my hope that this piece will encourage, entertain and challenge student players and provide useful concert material for use in the promotion of this unique and versatile instrument.

John Frith - 2017

This work is appropriate for younger performers at an intermediate level all in bass clef. The three movements total about 5 1/2 minutes in length and have the following titles:

1. Totem Tango

2. Full Steam Ahead

3. Clowning Around
