After seven years of research, Clinton F. Nieweg, Principal Librarian (retired) of The Philadelphia Orchestra has created a new publication of great interest for the Bass Trombone world and music libraries:
Music for Bass Trombone
A Reference Book of Works for Solo Bass Trombone with Orchestra, Band & Chamber Ensemble
Part 1: Compositions with Orchestra, 2nd edition (revised and expanded)
Part 2: Compositions with Band, 1st edition
A first of its kind reference book cataloging more than 600 compositions from 400 composers comprising works for solo Bass Trombone with orchestra, string orchestra, concert band, brass band, and chamber ensemble.
Its 200+ pages include detailed publisher sources, instrumentation, recording information, timings, links to performances online, composer dates, and reference sources.
Also included is a foreword by Douglas Yeo, Bass Trombonist (retired) of The Boston Symphony Orchestra.
This work is a must have for University & College pedagogues, serious students of the Bass Trombone and music libraries.
The latest version (July 2018) includes a 16 page addendum of newly added works for Bass Trombone.
Ray Horton, Bass Trombonist (retired) of the Louisville Orchestra has this to say about Mr. Nieweg: There is no finer musical scholar in the English language than Clinton Nieweg. This is an essential book for bass trombonists, and should be of interest to conductors, librarians, and anyone interested in music for orchestra, concert band, and chamber ensembles.
