Product Description

===
Brad Howland recently retired as Principal Trombone of the Victoria Symphony Orchestra, a position he held for 35 years. He has performed in the past as a substitute musician with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, CBC Vancouver Orchestra, Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra, and Palm Court Orchestra. He was a founding member of the Beacon Hill Brass on euphonium and trombone, and currently performs with the Festive Brass in Victoria, BC.

Brad took up composition in the summer of 2020 when he found he had a lot of pandemic-related free time. "I wanted to write something modal, which I'd never done before, and thought brass quintet would be a good ensemble for it. The piece ended up sounding a bit like Vaughan Williams, especially when the tuba solo happens."

All instruments need straight mutes, and the trumpets also need cups. Range is generally moderate except for a few high notes here and there, especially at the end for Trumpet 1. The tuba solo will give your performer a fingering workout!
