Albam - Quintet for Trombone and Saxophone QuartetManny Albam's Quintet for solo Trombone and Saxophone Quartet in four movements is a work for virtuoso performers about 14 minutes in length. Movement one is fast and contains sharp rhythms and contrasting undulating scales ending in mysterious quiet. Movement two is slow and soft using offset and layered tone clusters in the saxes under a lyrical and non tonal Trombone line. Later, the saxes are given long lines of soft clashing 1 16th note non tonal

The range goes to a top high C with Tenor Clef in the top two voices and is appropriate for moderately advanced performers

Lisa Albrecht’s beautiful arrangement for Trombone Quartet is based on the 1837 setting by Robert Pearsall

and a version designed for the less experienced players: the three movements are transposed down one step

Opus 44 were originally composed between 1859 and 1866 for his Women's Chorus in Hamburg

Terrett's version can be performed by advanced players

Good for recitals and concerts
