The set of
24 Preludes for Piano,
Op. 34 was composed in
the winter of 1932-33.
They represent all of the
major and minor keys,
inviting comparisons with
similar collections by
Bach and Chopin. Each
movement has its own
individual mood and there
are sharp contrasts
within each movement and
between movements in
style, rhythm and
harmony. James Markey has
brilliantly arranged
eleven of these movements
for Tenor Trombone and
Piano for virtuoso level
performers. The entire
work is about 17 minutes
in length. We are
grateful to the
Shostakovich estate and
G. Schirmer for
authorizing Mr. Markey's
arrangement. Mr. Markey
and pianist Virginia
Perry can be heard
performing this
arrangement of the
Preludes on his CD
entitled Offroad released
in 2003, which happens to
be sold by Cherry
Classics Music on this
site and also available
on iTunes and other music
retailers.

Brah
ms' 21 Hungarian Dances
were completed in 1869
and sent to his publisher
without opus numbers.
Only three of the works
are original
compositions. The music
mostly of one to five
minutes in length was
Brahm's biggest seller,
originally for solo
Piano, but once they were
arranged for piano four
hands, they exploded in
popularity.
Jame
s Miller has beautifully
arranged five of them (1,
5, 7,8 and 9) for
Trombone with Piano
accompaniment and are
appropriate very advanced
performers.

sound clips are of Mr.
Miller from his solo CD

…the audience loved
Red Dragonfly. Definitely
a keeper in my
repertoire! Dr. James
Bicigo, Associate
Professor of Trombone,
University of Alaska,
Anchorage Virtuoso piece,
the dramatic first
movement opens with a
Bold statement followed
by the beautiful love
theme. It reaches up to
the Cry of the Heart,
then everything ruptures
and crashes. Now the
trombonist must rebuild
and gain strength through
dramatic cadenzas until
reaching the
recapitulation where the
opening Bold melody is
transformed into a
majestic march in 3/4
time. The love theme
returns, and the movement
ends in triumph. The
second movement is a
setting of the famous
Japanese folksong, Red
Dragonfly. The trombonist
and pianist play the
lovely song amidst the
sound of fluttering wings
that appear and disappear
like memories of the
heart. Thank you to the
Nihon Gakugeki Kyoukai
Foundation for permission
to use the melody in this
trombone sonata. A solo
glissando opens the third
movement in American folk
dance style with tongue
in cheek and twinkle in
both eyes. The subsequent
variations include a
perfect triple canon, a
taste of New Orleans
jazz, and a dramatic
augmentation which spills
into a flashback of the
first movement’s
love theme. This melts
away and we recapture a
glimpse of the Red
Dragonfly melody, this
time growing to the
Triumphant restatement of
the first
movement’s main
theme. And finally, the
exuberant coda drives to
a spectacular ending.
