[Trombone-l] Origin of the so-called Weber Romanza?

[Philip Brink]

I have recently played the above piece and several of my students are
working on it [cause and effect? Maybe...], and this has given rise to
questions from students which I cannot answer. Is this by Weber, or by
someone posing as him for more sales? Whether it is by Weber or by someone
else, is it originally for trombone? Internal evidence suggests that it may
be for bassoon or cello but I don't know enough about Weber's output to
judge this, and Thailand is not the best place to begin such a search.

Anyone who knows more about this piece and its origins, please let me [and
the list] know about the Romanza [Romance, Romanza Appassionata]...
inquiring minds want to know!
