Brahms wrote three sets of Motets. This Motet, Opus 74, No. 2 composed in the early 1860?s is taken from text written by Friedrich Spee (1591-1635), inspired from the Hebrew bible. This Motet is often performed at Advent by Catholic and Protestant church choirs. As with much of Brahms? choral music, there is exceptional harmonic beauty and counterpoint which was influenced greatly by Bach.

Mr. Sauer has done an exceptional job of scoring this work for four part choir of advanced performers.

Jordon Drumgoole has arranged four lesser-known gems by master Ragtime composer, Scott Joplin. Ragtime Suite for Trombone Quartet includes the following four rags:

1. Original Rags, 2. Euphonic Sounds, 3. Pineapple Rag and 4. March Majestic

These rags are arranged in very comfortable keys and have easy ranges for all parts; plus, they can be performed by moderately advanced performers. The entire Suite with all repeats contains 14 minutes of delightful music that will get everyone's feet tapping!

Jeff Reynolds has done a gorgeous job arranging Three Early Sacred Pieces for 4-part Trombone Ensemble:

I. The Passion Chorale, O Sacred Head Now Wounded - Hassler/Graun

II. Cum esset desponsata - Isaac

III. Tu solus qui facis mirabilis - Des Prez

The Passion Chorale is performed during Holy Week. Cum esset is performed during the Christmas season and Tu solus is a Sacred Motet from 1503.

The top part is available in tenor and alto clef parts and all parts are of moderate difficulty in this 7-minute work.
