Credifr
Numerous people have contributed to the successful completion of this project. Chief
gong 49- is Thomas Everett, a man whom many peolte know as thb fbunder and
!_rstpresident of thelntemational TromboneAssociaiioi, frofessorof Music at Harvard
University, bass frombonist, and foremost scholar of the bass trombone. Ifis counsel
and encouragement have been extremely valuable and greatly appreciated.

Others who have ggnerous with their time and

Q*n _expertise regarding this project
igclu{e qeofgg Roberts,- Mark Lusk, Randy Hawes, Doirg yeo, to-5t ot"r, 6o,
Knaub, Fred Sturm, Chris Brubeck, CharlLs Campbell, Darren Miling and several
Mami-area colleagues.

My deepest gratitudg. gdut-jo James M. Broderick, who has develo@ an expertise in

99mput9r_manuscripti-ng. Hip perseverzulce, enthusiasm, attention to-dehil, and pride in
his work have made t$t p-j"ct more thoroughly, neatly and professimalli a*6 than it
otherwise would have been.

Dedication
This collection of etudes is dedicated to the memory of Frank Crisdrlli: principal and
second trombonist wjth the_Chicag! Symphony Orchestra for over 50 year3, meirber of
the Chicago Symphony Brass Quintet, Pr6fessor of Trombone -at Northwestern
University, ffid beloved teacher.

Prohgue
"In my opinion, the trombone is the true head of that family of wind instruments I have
named.the epic one. It;rcssesseq ng!1hf and grandeur to the highest degree; it has all
the serious and powerful tones of subtime and irusical poeuy, froh dig6*,'calm, and
lmposlng accents_to sav_age, o.rgiastic outbursts. Directed by the $rill of a-master, the
trombones can chant Iike a choir of_priests, tlreaten, utter gloomy sigh., a mournful
lamgnt o1 a .bright hymn 9f glory. They can break forth ioio r*6-inr"pirirg cries ana
awaken the dead or doom the living with their fearfrrl voices."

Hector Berlioz, from lis Treatise on Instumentation.
