David Baldwin Lips of Steel
22 Endurance Etudes
Revised and Edited by Alan Raph
Trombone
Alan Raph has adapted trumpet virtuoso David Baldwin’s Lips of Steel method for the trombone, and now trombone players can experience tremendous satisfaction when reaching the end of a piece with strength, resilience, and breath remaining for that last note! In other words, playing with endurance. Baldwin wasn’t born with this ability – he learned it, and Raph’s edition allows trombone players to learn it, too.

Lips of Steel is sure to become an essential part of the trumpet player’s curriculum. For intermediate students. See more...

Martin Kennedy Theme and Variations
Trombone and Piano
Theme and Variations was written for trombonist Rebecca Bower Cherian, who has recently released her recording Water Awakening (listen to a preview here). Cherian describes the work: "begins with a very powerful and driving theme in the trombone, supported by blocks of chords from the piano," and continues with an overview of the variations. In sum, Cherian says, "It is a beautiful and challenging work which I hope becomes a new standard in the solo trombone repertoire." For advanced performers. Dur.: 9'

Carter Pann Duo
A commission from the Wozniak Duo (Lois Hicks-Wozniak, saxophone, and Matthew Wozniak, bass trombone) led the composer to fashion a two-movement synthesis of this dynamic couple. The movements ("Lyrical Lois" and "Chopper's Rag") are contrasting elements, as reflects the contrasting instruments, The first begins "with sweet serenity," before giving way to a passage "in the groove," with rythmic foot stomps. The second ("Mean!") starts with attitude, then solidity ("Kinda square"). The original alto saxophone and bass trombone duo is also available in Pann's transcription for flute and bass trombone. Dur.: 10'. For advanced performers.
