Nimrod,
the ninth variation from
Elgar's masterpiece Op.
36, Enigma Variations
(1898-99) is one of the
most recognized works in
the classical repertoire.
There are so many
adjectives to describe
this piece of genius:
stately, majestic,
serious, solemn, moving,
noble, languid, stoic,
enduring and sublime.
There are few works in
the repertoire that bring
forth such strong
emotions as this work,
which is often performed
for funerals and for
Memorial Day /
Remembrance Day services.
Mr. Malmstrom's
beautifully lush
arrangement is scored for
2 alto trombones
(optional), 3 tenor
trombones, 2 bass
trombones and 1
contrabass trombone
(optional). This
arrangement of 3-4
minutes in length is
appropriate for advanced
performers.

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.
