Well performed Trombone concertos

R. Rockwell | Brooklyn, NY USA | 03/24/2005

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This disc collects all of the instrumental(ie concerto)music that is available for trombone. Interestingly the four composers on the CDlived at about the same time and same some location in Europe. These concerti for alto trombone are certainly not masterpieces, but they are highly enjoyable and well played by Trudel and the Northern Sinfonia. I would not recommend these to belong in every collection but if you enjoy wind concerti, the Naxos prices makes it highly affordable."

Transcendentally Beautiful Music

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I first heard "classical" solo trombone music while at a music conference. It surprised me (a string player) then, and it astonishes me no less with the passing of the years. Absolutely nothing less than 5 stars is appropriate for this recording. Not only is this CD brilliantly performed, the music itself is gorgeous. Lesser-known composers and an even-lesser appreciated instrument here receive the treatment they deserve. Most highly recommended."
