[Trombone-l] Shameless Slechta Plug

[Daryl Burch]

WOW!

...liked 'em so much I'll say it backwards!

!WOW

'dats some sweetly whacked arrangin'!

The 8-tet of "Wee 3 Kings" is pretty intense. I can think of a few base 
boneheads I'd like to unleash that one on!

Some really nice stuff. Now I need to go make 7 friends so's I can play 
it! #;-)

Either that or get my GarageBand s/w & USB mic working. Then I can play 
by myself!

...Or would it be wi... NEVER MIND!

Seriously, those are some really nice charts his written. Really good 
at conveying groove with rhythmic lines. Really tight, rich voicings, 
too.

My $0.03, anyway.

Cheers!

Ladies and Gents,

Last fall, the UT Trombone Choir recorded a disc of Gary Slechta's
holiday arrangements (www.SelectAPress.com).  We were all impressed with
Gary's musicality and quality of the physical parts.  Better yet, the
recording has since made it to the 2006-2007 Grammy Entry List!  We're
all surprised/elated to have recorded one of the top 100 CD's of the 
year.

Consider this a shameless and dutiful plug for Gary Slechta and his many
seasonal & non-seasonal arrangements for quintet, trombone choir, horn
ensemble, trumpet ensemble etc.  Visit www.SelectAPress.com for sound
bytes and the full catalog.  His works are appropriate for
professionals, most for university ensembles, and a some for a high
school chamber ensembles.

  I purchased a stack last year (brass quintets, trombone quartets), and
they were great arrangements for seasonal gigs.  Gary and his wife run
an excellent business, and I know they'd be happy to hear from you.

You can also purchase the "Christmas the University of Texas Trombone
Choir" disc via Select-A-Press or the UT Trombone Studio (contact myself
or Nathaniel Brickens).  We still have a few discs in the office, and it
would be great to press some more!

Happy upcoming Turkey/Tofurkey Day,

Denton Thomas
