Trombonists today need more than ever before to be grounded in both classical and commercial (jazz/pop) styles. From the jazz waltz of ´Smoochissimo´ to the pounding groove of ´The Backbone´ this book shows you a wide range of licks and phrasing. The Velvet Slide will help you develop the skills needed to fit in comfortably in a brass section, a jazz band or on Top of the Pops!
