David Wilborn's SlideShow for 8-part Trombone Ensemble is a showy work that has continuous energy all the way throughout. It is in A-B-A format with the B section being a bit more relaxed. The work has lots of rhythmic and tonal contrasts and gives a very good work out for the performers' slides as well, as per the title. The music is about 6 minutes in length, all in bass clef and is appropriate for advanced performers. SlideShow was written for Jon Bohls and the SlideShow Trombone Choir of Dallas, Texas.

Four Elements was originally composed for Violin and Bass Trombone and was written as a Christmas present for the composer's sister, Priscilla, and her husband, Bass Trombonist, Gordon Hallberg who performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.Raum was experimenting with tone rows at the time and the row is first stated in the first six notes in the Trombone part followed by the next six in the Violin part.The titles of the movements, from the Four Elements, are descriptive of the moods of each movement.Water has the lines of the instruments flowing, as in a river with swirls and eddies.Earth has Jazz influences which are intended to give an Earthy quality to the second movement.Air, with mutes, glissandos, and quasi unmeasured rhythm, seeks to float;The finale Fire is crackling with excitement. Trombonist, David William Brubeck, asked Raum if she had anything written for trumpet and trombone as he frequently performs in a duo so she adapted the violin part in Four Elements for trumpet.The work can be performed by advanced performers.Two scores are provided, including one for C Trumpet and the other for B-flat Trumpet. The Trombone part can be performed with an f-attachment Tenor Trombone or Bass Trombone.

Around the Bend - Duet for Trumpet and Trombone (with F-attachment) is a pithy, funny 3-minute work for advanced performers by Elizabeth Raum. She knows her way around brass technique and this work fits both instruments perfectly. The work is in A-B-A form. Both parts play with each other and against each other at various times creating a bit of a battle of wills with a sense of humor. This work was dedicated to and commissioned by David Brubeck.
