Sonata in A minor for Bass Trombone Unaccompanied

The Sonata for Solo Flute (Wq. 132) was composed in 1747, although it was not published until 1763. This transcription is in the original key of A minor, where it lies perfectly in the bass trombone range while also playable on the tenor trombone with F attachment. The first two movements can be reversed to create a traditional fast-slow-fast pattern, or played as originally published.


The length of the three-movement work is about 10 minutes and is appropriate for advanced performers.
