[Trombone-l] Bass trombone solo literature

[Jason Smith]

 Thanks guys for all your help and suggestions.  This
kid is a soph. in High school and has a lot of
fundamental problems I just started working with fun
so this should be a fun challenge.  His parents order
for him today a Shires bass trombone so that will be a
big improvement from the Beijing special he was
playing on.
