Back in December I posted an article on the Reicha horn trios. In that article I mentioned that I had been looking at these recently for performance with my ASU faculty colleagues Douglas Yeo (bass trombone) and Deanna Swoboda (tuba). In preparation for our performance of these works we performed the set for the trombone studio class, which was recorded. It came out quite well; below is our version of five of the Reicha horn trios! (The direct link is here).
Both after this class and after the performance at the MIM audience members commented very positively on the sound and blend of the combination of instruments. I look forward to performing more often with Yeo and Swoboda, we have a number of works in the folder that will work well for our combination of instruments. And check out the same YouTube channel for more ASU trombone (and tuba) related videos.
