8-part Trombone Ensemble

SKU: CY.CC3783

Composed by S. Coleridge-Taylor. Arranged by Richard Decker. British 19th century. Score and parts. Cherry Classics #CC3783. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC3783).

Here is a description of Sea Drift of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor by arranger Richard Decker.

This trombone ensemble arrangement captures the subtle textures of the composer’s chromatic harmonies inspired in the original vocal octet by a poem by T. B. Aldrich. Born of an African father, Coleridge-Taylor was an early 20th century English composer and conductor who was an influential advocate for Black composers. One of Coleridge-Taylor's rare a cappella compositions for vocal SATB double choir here arranged for 8-part trombone ensemble, Sea Drift is infused with descriptive tone-color painting highlighting the tragic story of the merchant sailor who perishes in a stormy sea to the despair of his lover onshore. The trombone choir has alternate parts for alto trombone and contrabass trombone.

The instrumentation of this 5-minute work is for 6 Tenor Trombones (part 1 optional alto) and 2 Bass Trombones (part 8 optional contrabass) and appropriate for advanced performers.
