Ballad for Bass Trombone - Jan Van der Roost

Izumi Shibata commissioned the Ballad for Bass Trombone as a unique and thoughtful birthday present for her husband, who happens to play this very instrument. Thanks to her gift, bass trombone players around the world received a stunning addition to their repertoire. The ballad will be a welcomed challenge for every soloist and an interesting, though not particularly demanding, job for the accompanying ensemble.

Ballad for Benny - Philip Sparke

The birth of Philip Sparke's second son, Benjamin, was the inspiration for composing Ballad for Benny. A short calm introduction leads to the main ballad theme, a gentle waltz melody. Following the work's climax in which the complete band plays the main theme the sound fades and the piece ends in calm and serenity.
