Including many of the greatest and newest trombone quartets ever written, the “Post-Modern Trombone” highlights a wide range of approaches to music written after 1950. Tied together seamlessly with connective interludes, the concert feels as if it is constantly growing, engaging audiences in a new compelling way to experience chamber music. From the jazz-based quartets of Daniel Schnyder to the avant-garde graphic notation of Rabe to the post-minimalist approach of Galen Brown, the GUIDONIAN HAND presents a virtuosic concert of highly emotional depth and beautiful sonorities that will stay with audiences for a long time.
