The Easter Egg Rock is a fun and original duet written by David McKeown for two Trombones.

The Easter Egg Rock is one in a series of ten Easter-themed duets each written in a different American dance style. Modern Rock music has its origins in Rock’n’Roll, with the first use of the word in 1951 by an Ohio DJ.  The first big hit was Bill Haley’s Rock Around the Clockin 1955, but other artists such as Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bo Diddley, Gene Vincent and Little Richard all have strong claims to being the first Rock’n’Roll artist.

The Easter Egg Rock is suitable for players at an intermediate level and above, with the accessible key and range balanced by the fast tempo and syncopated rhythms and accidentals. With a playing-time of around one and a half minutes, The Easter Egg Rock is a perfect upbeat addition to any performance program, formal or informal.

Composed by Friedrich Auguste Belcke. Arranged by Niels-Ole Bo Johansen. Classical,Romantic Period. Score. 9 pages. Gordon Cherry #685645. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.1081519).

Six Duos for Trombones, Op. 50 by Friedrich Belcke composed in 1832 may be one of the first sets of duets specifically written for Trombones. Belcke explains that the duos are all in the same key of B-flat and may be transposed into any key or clef, which adds a serious challenge for the performers beyond the initial intermediate level of the music. Check out the sample and test yourself....can you transpose up or down a half or full step at sight? Niels-Ole Bo Johansen has edited these six duos so both parts can be shared with one score.
