[Trombone-l] Scriptural reference for the sackbut

[Wessner, John]

More important to me is the use of pausane by Luther in his translation of what shall sound at the last judgement.

Thanks, but my article in that issue of the HBSJ is about the 
trombone in orchestras of the 18th and early 19th centuries. The 
article that you're referring to is by Herb Myers and entitled 
"Evidence of the emerging trombone in the late fifteenth century."
