The "trumpet of the low range," as the trombone is occasionally referred to, is one of the oldest fully chromatic playable orchestra instruments alongside the violin. However, already in the following century, one limited oneself to alto, tenor, and bass instruments. Since the 18th century, the trombone trio with different distributions of the three voice types has had a firm place in the orchestra. Nevertheless, there are few works specifically written for the trombone. Therefore, it is not surprising that in the program of the Leipzig Trombone Quartet OPUS 4, there are hardly any original compositions, but mainly arrangements. A large part of the arrangements is from the founder and conductor of the ensemble Jörg Richter himself. Pieces from the Renaissance and Baroque eras are on the program as well as modern or popular compositions. This demonstrates that the trombone, like hardly any other instrument, is equally suitable for both old and new music, including jazz.
