Andante-Allegro

At a gentle Walking Pace with Gathering Momentum Remix July 29

Solo in a contemporary style for Trombone encompassing a riddle.
(N.B.My attention has been drawn to the fact that this piece may not be playable at this tempo by a real trombonist in which case I would advise a slower tempo e.g. 105-110bpm insteadof 120bpm)

The Pilgrims Walrus for Solo Trombone: A Nominal Riddle (Revised 4 December 2023 Tempo110bpm)

This is a fairly complete revision of the original upload of August 2022. It is a jubilant piece that needs to be taken in its own terms. The musical vocabulary in this piece is very conservative and it obeys conventional structural norms. This version was mixed down using Noteperformer Sample library interacting with Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition and is being subjected to ongoing revision.
This track is mastered by John Cafarella.
