The writing of Romanza and Scherzo was inspired by Charles Vernon, the legendary Bass Trombonist of the Chicago Symphony, who asked Mr. Pierce to write something for me with lots of melodies. The work is in three sections: a brief introduction followed by the very expressive Romanza and the final Scherzo, which is light and bouncy. The music is full of LOTS OF MELODIES, has a very large range and features a challenging cadenza. About 10 minutes in length, this music is appropriate for advanced performers. This work is dedicated to George Curran, Bass Trombonist of the New York Philharmonic who performs it on his new CD, Vital Signs, available on iTunes, CD Baby and from other distributors. Below is a brief sample of this beautiful work performed by Mr. Curran.

Pledge was commissioned for an all American composers concert in April 2010 during the Butler School of Music's Second Annual Research Week. The piece was inspired by the composer's own feelings regarding America as well as the reputation the country has acquired throughout the world. This piece questions where the nation will go from here, and what the future may hold for its citizens. To compose the Bass Trombone melody for the A section of the piece he set the text of the Pledge of Allegiance to music, resulting in a singing, syllabic style.The work (all in bass clef) is about 4 minutes in length and can be performed by intermediate (taking the lower octave option bars) to moderately advanced performers. The range of the Bass Trombone part goes from a pedal G to an optional high B-flat above the staff.
