Sheet Music

Trombone ensemble (trombone choir and drums) - Level 3

SKU: NC.2389

Composed by Antonio Garcia. Score and set of parts. Published by UNC Jazz Press (NC.2389).

(Level III) Bones At The Ready Composed for and premiered by the 2010 International Trombone Festival Jazz Choir, members ages 20 to 80. A Bb swing blues, playable by as few as four performers or as a larger choir. Everyone gets a piece of the melody at some point. Lead part rises only to Ab above the staff. The provided drum set part is optional. Solo space is provided for each chair; but the chart performs wonderfully even if no one solos, as the stop-times and riffs make for excellent passages on their own. It can easily be opened up for additional soloists, including non-trombone guests. Works as an opener or closer. This composition is dedicated to my older brother, Jose!, who played trombone in high school and was a great example of musical interest, passion, dedication, hard work, and enjoyment. Trombone Choir plus Drums.
