Here is a
description of this
beautiful work by the
composer: Reflection and
Celebration for 8-part
Trombone Ensemble is a
musical homage to a man
who was revered for his
mentorship, musical
intellect and delightful
humor. The work opens
with a somber melodic
solo, capturing the noble
spirit of this great
mentor. Several
repetitive 5-note
ascending motives follow
which is a symbolic
reference to students
learning and
accomplishing under
Conklin's mentorship. The
bold fanfare style (in
measure 32) is presented
to capture the presence
and tall stature of
Conklin. Finally,
Conklin's down-to-earth
personality and his
infectious humor is
referenced (in measure
83). Even the fanfare
theme returns in a faster
tempo, thus highlighting
the frivolity,
lightheartedness, and
wisdom of this adored
music teacher. The music
is about 6 1/2 minutes in
length and is appropriate
for moderately advanced
performers.

Joshua F'it de
Battle of Jericho is a
well-known
African-American
spiritual, most likely
composed by slaves in the
early 19th century. Early
versions used the word
f'it for fought. The
words harken to the
biblical story of the
Battle of Jericho, where
Joshua led the Israelites
to victory against
Canaanite
armies.
Put into
perspective, Joshua's
battle is really against
slavery and the desire
for freedom, like the
themes of so many other
spirituals from that
era.
This
rousing arrangement in
swing-style for 8-part

James Markey is about two

Motet
Lobet den Herrn, BWV 230,
for four part chorus has
no known date of
composition and was first
published in 1821. It has
a different character
from the previous motets
in that it was not
written for a funeral and
has no chorale melody,

Hallelujah. Mr. Sauer has

Hill
Country Miniatures for
8-part Trombone Ensemble
was written by Richard J.
Lawn in 2002 for the
Trombone Choir at the
University of Texas and
its director Nathaniel
Brickens. The work is
dedicated to Donald Knaub
its former director. It
has become a staple in
the American Trombone
Ensemble repertoire since
its original release. Mr.
Lawn explains in the
notes, his deep emotional
connection to the Hill
Country land and to his
days at the Eastman
School of Music, hearing
the legendary Trombone
Choir led by Emory
Remington and following
through to his days at
the University of Texas
with Knaub and Brickens,
all of which inspired him
to compose this work.
This music is about 15
minutes in length and is
for advanced performers.
The four movements of the
work are: Hickory Cove -
September 2001 - a
lyrical, somber and
solemn introductory
movement. Smithwick - a
jaunty piece reflecting
the Scottish and English
heritage of this tiny
Texas spot. The Narrows -
As part of the Colorado
River narrows, it twists
and turns its way through
the Texas Hill Country.
You can hear the gentle
waters winding through
the cliffs and slopes.
Blue Bonnet Boogie - The
springtime brings a
profusion of the Blue
Bonnet, the Texas state
flower. A sea of these
swaying in the breeze
brings out the good old
down-home boogie-woogie!
A jazz solo featuring
Bass Trombone (written
for Bill Reichenbach in
mind) with solo written
out or improvised using
chord symbols adds a
festive finish. Cherry
Classics is proud to be
the new distributor of
this great work.

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.

Bach
's Toccata and Fugue in D
minor BWV 565 is possibly
the most famous work in
the organ repertoire. It
was written as early as
1704 while the composer
was in his teens, which
could explain some of its
unusual features. It
first appeared in
publication in 1833 by
way of Felix
Mendelssohn. The
first appearance of this
work as a transcription
and recording for brass
came in 1979 by Frederick
Mills and the Canadian
Brass, becoming an iconic
work in the ensemble's
repertoire. Ralph

work is flowing and
mysterious and uses the
sky as the musical canvas
with the slow motion of
the clouds floating
across with the tones of
color from white to dark
gray. Randall Malmstrom's
unique arrangement for
8-part Trombone Ensemble
uses a family of mutes
(optional....straight,
cup and bucket) to bring
out the colors of
Debussy's work of
genius.
Composed by Johann
Hentzschel. Arranged by

Canzon 1649 by
Johann Hentzschel for
8-part Trombone ensemble
is reminiscent of
Gabrieli and others of
the late Renaissance
period with antiphonal
writing for multiple
choirs. The music has
been expertly edited by
Nathan Siler and is
lively with notable
sections of imitation and
dance rhythms. This
3-minute work is
appropriate for
moderately advanced
performers and has no
endurance or range
challenges. The fine
live performance of this
work is led by the editor
himself, Trombonist,
Nathan Siler.
