9′ / Solo Bass Trombone and Woodwind Quintet / $35 PDF Score and Parts

When asked by my good friend and colleague Anthony to write a solo trombone work for his recital, I was both honored and excited to be able to write a solo piece for trombone. The hardest part about approaching this project was finding a way to highlight both the trombone and Anthony.

Then I thought, what better way to showcase Anthony than by using his name for the main theme using the French method of the musical cryptogram.
