Program Notes
Deception, Hope, Longing, and Grit explore character, pacing, and texture as the trombonist navigates the intrigue of twisting implied harmony and the beauty of all registers of the instrument. These études were constructed not only as exercises but as miniature pieces, distilling entire narratives into brief but impactful scenes for the performer to interpret.
Additional Information
Commissioned and edited by Kenneth Thompkins as part of the collection, Concert Etudes for Solo Trombone.
