[Trombone-l] Trombone-l Digest, Vol 36, Issue 1

[John Wasson]

That is very likely Dick McQuarry’s arrangement. He did a dozen or two really fine arrangements for 6 trombones (incl. 2 basses) and rhythm section. We have played nearly all of them for years in Them Bones here in Dallas.

They are all available out on the web as a download; I found them via a google search, but can’t remember where. :-) Should be easy for you to search out, though.

Hope this helps,
