Sir Arnold Bax
composed in a style that
blended Romantic,
Impressionist and Celtic
flavors together in a
brilliant way. Mr. Sauer
has taken these two works
originally for Piano and
brilliantly transcribed
them for Trombone &
Piano. The Country Tune
begins with a beautiful
melody which turns into a
jaunty dance. The
Burlesque is also
dance-like, but mixes 3/4
and 4/4 time in a most
inovative way. These
works are light, airy &
very pleasant to perform
and listen to.

…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.
