About this item
Commissioned by the New Trier (IL) High School Jazz Ensemble directed by Jim Warrick and dedicated to J.J. Johnson, this showcase for two trombones features moderate brass ranges and accessible up-swing rhythms. To properly complement the energetic solo lines and avoid a frantic sound, it should be played with a light feel at the indicated tempo (quarter note=192). An optional 5th Trombone part is included, plus an alternate 1st Tenor part (sub. for 2nd trombone).
