Partite is a
continuous--that is,
connected--set of
variations on the chorale
melody Herzliebster Jesu,
was hast do verbrochen
translated in some modern
hymnals Ah Holy Jesus,
how has Thou offended?.
The basic form of the
work is rather
traditional--a theme
played by bass trombone
preceded by an
introduction and followed
by a series of
variations. A more
fundamental aspect,
however, is the shape
created by a succession
of moods: the
introduction is
questioning, or perhaps
questing; the statement
of the theme is quiet but
troubled; the three
variations following
become gradually more
mocking and sarcastic,
but are overcome by the
serene and accepting
final section, which
incorporates one of J.S.
Bach's most moving
harmonizations of the
chorale. Partite was
commissioned by the
University of Georgia
Trombone Choir, Dr.
Phillip Jameson,
Director. It is dedicated
to the memory of Mark A.
Lea. Copyright 1987.
Composed by Gustav Holst.
Arranged by Ronald
Barron. 20th Century
British. Score and parts.

The
Evening-Watch was written
in 1925, when Holst lived
in Thaxted, England
having had to
temporarily leave his
teaching duties because
of overwork and illness.
This setting of Henry
Vaughan's
‘Dialogue
between the Body and the
Soul' was too
austere for
listeners of its day and
it remained out of print
for thirty years, until
1965. Its mood of calm
strength and passionate
resignation sounds as if
it belongs to the 1960's.
This
beautiful arrangement for
8-part trombone choir by
Ronald Baron seems
altogether appropriate
given the instrument's
vocal character, its
frequent use for music at
funerals and Holst's
other musical passion;
his short career as a
trombonist.
The
4 minute piece is
appropriate for
moderately advanced
performers.

Johann Sebastian Bach.
Arranged by Ralph Sauer.
Baroque. Score and parts.

Classics (CY.CC2378).
The Toccata in
e minor comes from the
keyboard Partita, BWV 830
first published in 1731.
This work is not only
grand in length, but also
in expression having a
very serious tone. The
many moods of the work
have been beautifully
portrayed by Ralph
Sauer's elegant
transcription. All parts
have equal weight in
importance in this
setting.
About seven
minutes in length for
advanced performers.
