If you have composed or arranged a work for trombone(s), and would like to offer it for others to perform during ITW, please let us know. Thank you!
The following trios are part of International Trombone Week.
David Caldwell: Three for Three: Catches for Young Trombonists
Note: Each of these pieces is a “catch” – a kind of round popular in England in the 17th and 18th centuries – written for three voices. Catches were sung by catch clubs, groups of men who got together in the evening, usually over a punch bowl, to sing catches, rounds and glees. (Our glee clubs are their descendants.) The lyrics of catches often contain jokes, puns and double meanings, some of which are lost when playing them on the trombone.
Colby Norton: Away
