Welcome to the spring edition of The Trombonist, 2019.
We are proud to present the work of the Concert Trombone Quartette, as featured on our cover, the work of Raph Clarkson, as well as a bumper edition of reviews of recent releases and events too. We celebrate the life of John Edney (1935-2019), former trombonist of the Royal Opera House, a highly respected teacher and once membership secretary of the BTS.
Our education column returns with Jon Stokes who shares a number of his favourite teaching resources, highlighting our own ABRSM project as a particularly handy tool. Our regulars have some exciting pieces for you too; Jeremy Price and Rob Egerton feature the fantastic solos from Hey There by Carl Fontana and Bill Watrous in this edition’s Jazz by Jeremy feature, and be sure to check our G&T feature and What’s On pages for an idea of the events coming up for you to all enjoy.
Happy reading.
