$28.60
Item Details
Adapted from the tenor trombone by Donald Knaub.
Duration 8 minutes. Published by Alphonse Leduc (AL25465).
This work was "...composed in 1950. "Danse Sacree" is a slow, rubato melody that turns into a forward moving gesture becoming a theme and variations of sort until the first powerful cadenza. The first movement ends with the beautiful lyrical melody as it opened. "Danse Profane" is based on a samba beat for a flashy ending."
