Patrick McCarty also wrote a trombone quartet, and he was my freshman music
theory teacher at Loyola Univeristy New Orleans.  He was a trombonist and
attended Eastman.  He taught at Loyola for quite some time, retiring in the
early 1990's.  As far as I know he is still alive.  He was injured in a
swimming accident, and severly paralyzed.  When I was in his class, he had a
graduate assistant that wheeled him around and wrote on the board and played
the piano excerpts.  He was a marvelous teacher.

One of the listees (Robert Holland maybe?) publishes some of his works and
would probably have more info.
