Description
Trombone Duet trombone and bass trombone (or tuba) - Grade 4-5
SKU: B7.B350B
Composed by Howard J. Buss. An entertaining sonatina in 4 movements: Daybreak, Chorale, Rendezvous, and Homeward Bound - fun to play and listen to. 20th Century. Score. Composed 1996. Duration 7'. Brixton Publications #B350B. Published by Brixton Publications (B7.B350B).8.5x11 inches.
The first movement, Daybreak, has a frolicking, optimistic character. Chorale breaks with the traditional structure of the chorale in that each phrase gets a measure longer. The harmonies of the second movement contain some spicy dissonances as well. Rendezvous, is in a lilting 6/8 and really "works up a lather" as it progresses to an exciting climax. Homeward Bound, begins with a fanfare-like passage that gives way to a spirited dance characterized by an intriguing interplay between the instruments.
