[Trombone-l] Trombone Quartets with organ

[Dave Demko]

Good suggestions, Eric. The Choral Public Domain Library,
http://www.cpdl.org, is an excellent resource. I've transcribed some
SATB pieces available there for the Demko family brass quartet (weird
instrumentation: horn, bone, bone, euph). Lots of early music is
available there: Byrd, Gabrieli, Dowland, Tallis, Monteverdi, hundreds
of composers. Bob, you should find a lot to choose from with four
voices plus organ. Cost to you: time spent on transcribing and
arranging as necessary.
