Serenade for Viola and Trombone

"Serenade for Viola and Trombone", from American composer P. F. Strohm, was written for and dedicated to Katherine Lewis and Mark Babbitt, professors of music at Illinois State University. This piece is a true duet throughout, with equal roles for both parts of this unique pairing. After a dramatic introduction, the work features a moderate, courante-like first half, followed by rapid skirmishes and resolutions and a peaceful ending. "Serenade for Viola and Trombone" is excellent for recitals and contests. Performance time is 4:50. Difficulty is Medium-Advanced. Member, ASCAP
