Limbo Lounge - Florian Magnus Maier

For 6 trombones: 2 alto, 2 tenor,1 bass, 1 contrabass

Warning: very difficult!

Until recently, the catholic doctrine said, the limbo is the waiting room of hell. Composer Florian Magnus Maier has always found this idea nonsense. According to him it is a place where you can party - hence Limbo Lounge for trombone collective. The work follows a centuries-old tradition, because since the time of Monteverdi, the trombone served as the voice of the underworld.
