Amid a kaleidoscopic mist - Christian Overhead

For 6 trombones: 4 tenor and 2 bass

Fascinating composition with an impressionistic sound. All the colors of the trombone are demonstrated through diverse tone shifts.

Winner of  the jury prize of the Slide Factory Composition Battle 2011 

a note from the composer: "This is my first composition for trombone ensemble (I mainly compose for brass bands so I do have some experience of writing for 3 trombones within a band). I’ve tried to make use of the various tones a trombone can create – beautiful, majestic, and even violent!"
