I was looking for a tune with a Halloween vibe, and Clint, who creates most of the art for my channel, suggested Tristram Village from Diablo. I think it was a great choice and I hope you enjoy it!
Hard to imitate a classical guitar with the trombone...but you didn't. You firmly grasped the guitar's motifs and made them the trombone's! Nicely done! This was another I did not know and had to find a recording of the original. Again, you did the original justice and the trombone(s) justice as well. And as always, I was glad I listened to it! Thanks!
Thanks, Michael! I appreciate that you go back and listen to the originals. It certainly is a challenge trying to figure out what parts of the tune to emphasize in the arrangement to feature the strengths of the trombone.I was really happy with how this one turned out. 😀
Now i know why so few of trombone is in music (7 musicians for this song). I am not fan of the instrument, but you work there was amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, Brad. The contra is a Thein with a universal slide and German bell and valve section. The tenor and bass are older Shires models-I can go into detail, but not sure how interested people are in that. Steve actually came to my apartment a couple months ago and long story short he’s making me a Stephen’s bass trombone.
I shall make weapons from your (trom)bones!

Annnnd I'm thinking about playing Diablo again
Amazing arrangement. And well done!
Thank you very much! I appreciate you coming back, Mark!
That was outstanding! Can you put a list of the trombones you use? The bass and contra bass sound REALLY nice..
