Trombone - Treble & Bass clef parts included.
Saint-Saëns composed prolifically yet few people are aware that he wrote any music for trombone. His Cavatine demonstrates perfectly the salient characteristics of Saint-Saëns Conservatoire musical style — neat proportions, clarity, polished expression and an elegant melodic tune.
"...The presentation is attractive, with solo and piano parts very clearly printed. I found the short biographical and performance notes added by Chris Mowat both interesting and helpful...." Reviewed 'The Trombonist'

Dedicated to his wife, Elgar sold the copyright of Salut d'Amour to a publisher for just over £2, who changed the title into French, thereby hoping to sell more copies. It did sell, at once, and has remained very popular ever since.
Sambezi is the brass band version of the last movement of Philip Sparke’s Trombone Concerto. It starts in a joyful and outgoing mood with the soloist playing a carefree samba tune. A jazz-influenced central tune explores the higher ranges of the trombone before the samba rhythms set up a ‘contest’ between the soloist and the band’s trombone section. The soloist is the eventual ‘winner’ and he celebrates by reintroducing the samba melody before bringing the work to a virtuosic close. A real treat for your trombone soloist.
