Trombone Concerto: Trombone and Piano

More about the book

(Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music). A major addition to the concertante trombone repertory, this single-movement work lasting 30 minutes was premiered in 2017 by Jorgenvan Rijen and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, conducted by Ivan Fischer. Press reviews were "...this magnificent concerto enriches the repertoire...The trombone sang, sang, sang...then suddenly a spectacular mating dance of four trombones a la Stockhausen. At the very end van Rijen and MacMillan struck me down between the serene harmonies which came to a moment of rest, the trombone once more entered with a heart-breaking eruption...the wonderful beauty of despair...It is a concerto for eternity, and trombone players could use one." - De Trouw.
