Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.1370067). Bass Lines for unaccompanied Bass Trombone by David Fetter, composed in 1993, consists of four intentionally difficult etudes.No. 1 exploits a traditional Boogie-Woogie figure, taking it through all keys, like an elaborate warm-up.No. 2, Spain has a Spanish influence. Its first performance was by Blair Bollinger, Bass Trombone of the Philadelphia Orchestra, on a recital at Temple University in 1996.No. 3, Flowing is a minimalist challenge requiring concentration, breath control, and stamina, with long flowing patterns, slurs through the middle register, and references to rhythms found in the music of Charles Ives.No. 4, Rock has a pounding rock-guitar A section and a calm, jazz-cello style B section.This work of about 15-minutes in length is appropriate for advanced performers. Bass Lines is a great work to present on a recital, competition, or a jury.
