Twenty-four of Johann Sebastian Bach's immortal fugues from the Well-Tempered Clavier (in all major and minor keys) have been brilliantly transcribed for four Trombones by Ralph Sauer, former Principal Trombonist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
Volumes 1 & 2 contain all (1-24) of these 24 fugues for advanced performers. This collection of the Fugues is the first of its kind and will become the gold standard of Bach Fugues for Trombonists.
Parts 1 and 2 are in Tenor clef and parts 3 and 4 are in only in bass clef.

Capriccio in B-flat, BWV 992 is an early keyboard work, first performed at age 19 when his brother Johann Jacob travelled to become an oboist in the army of Charles XII of Sweden. The 12-minute work for 4-part Trombone ensemble is appropriate for advanced performers. Dr. Marcellus has dedicated his arrangement to the memory of the late Steve Witser, his former student and colleague who was Principal Trombonist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The work is separated into six sections titled:
1. Arioso: Adagio - His friends try to persuade him not to undertake the journey
2. Andante - His friends tell him of the various misfortunes that may befall him abroad
3. Adagiosissimo - The general lament of his friends
4. Andante con moto - His friends come, since they see that it must be, and take leave of him
5. Posthorn Aria
6. Fugue in Imitation of the Posthorn.

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
