Product Description

A trombone duet arrangement of Lassus Trombone. 

DISCLAIMER: This piece is said to have racist origins, and it absolutely does. When Henry Fillmore originally put out the piece, he did in fact publish it with racist depictions of African-American trombonists. However, it is my opinion that the music itself is not racist. After all, it is an instrumental piece. It does not have racist lyrics like minstrel songs do, nor is it published anymore with racist depictions of people. And additionally, American music started with racism. It started with minstrel shows and blackface. That is how American musical culture was formed, and you can find songs with much worse backgrounds than this one that are still performed today. Even the Christmas tune "Jingle Bells" was originally a minstrel song, and that is still performed. Simply erasing this music won't do anything. That's my opinion. If you disagree, don't play it.
