This Sonata, originally for organ,
lends itself beautifully for trombone trio. Each manual on the
organ is represented by one trombonist, and Bach's contrapuntal
writing ensures that each player has an interesting part to play.
I took a minimalist approach
to editing this sonata. The original organ version has no dynamics
or phrase markings, and I decided that like Bach, I would leave
those choices up to the performers.
The outer movements of this three
movement sonata can be programmed individually, or the three
movements together can be a major work on a recital.
Suitable for Advanced College
or Professional players
