Ross Holcombe has beautifully arranged the Six Lieder, Op. 7 by Fanny Hensel-Mendelssohn for 8-part Trombone Ensemble. Here is what the arranger has said about the music and his arrangement.
Each of these lieder are arranged with two trombone parts playing the vocal melody in unison and six other parts playing the piano accompaniment. Any of these lieder may be played as a trombone octet with one player per part or a trombone choir with multiple players per part. As a third option, these lieder may be played by a soloist with trombone sextet or choir accompaniment, omitting the other part which also contains the melody.
Each movement features 2 of the 6 tenor parts with the melody line. The music is appropriate for moderately advanced performers and totals about 10-12 minutes in length.
Samples of the Mendelssohn-Hensel Six Lieder have been beautifully recorded by the arranger, Ross Holcombe.
