Trombone Concerto, for trombone and orchestra, piano reduction with solo part

ISMN: 979-0-060-13536-1

A major addition to the concertante trombone repertory, this single-movement work lasting 30 minutes was premiered in 2017 by Jörgen van Rijen and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, conducted by Iván Fischer. Press reviews were ecstatic: "? this magnificent concerto enriches the repertoire ? The trombone sang, sang, sang ? then suddenly a spectacular mating dance of four trombones à la Stockhausen. At the very end van Rijen and MacMillan struck me down completely: between the serene harmonies which came to a moment of rest, the trombone once more entered with a heart-breaking eruption ? the wonderful beauty of despair ? It is a concerto for eternity, and trombone players could use one." - De Trouw.
