Concerto for Bass Trombone

Concerto for Trombone and Orchestra was written in 1924 by Danish composer Launy Grøndahl during his time in Italy. It was inspired by the trombone section of the Orchestra of the Casino Theatre in Copenhagen (of which Grøndahl had been a violinist since the age of thirteen). This work was premiered in Copenhagen by the Orchestra of the Casino Theatre with soloist Vilhelm Aarkrogh, the principal trombonist of the orchestra. This major work of the Trombone repertoire has been recorded by many great artists.

This wonderful first-of-a-kind arrangement for Bass Trombone with Piano Accompaniment edited by Wade Goodwin is appropriate for advanced performers and is about 13 minutes in length.

This work is one of the backbones of the Tenor Trombone repertoire and now it is available for Bass Trombonists.
