By EnsembleSheetMusic. Composed by Anton Bruckner. Arranged by Sjoerd van der Veen. This edition: pdf, streaming. Chamber, Classical, Romantic Period, Sacred, Traditional. 7 pages. Sjoerd van der Veen #156751. Published by Sjoerd van der Veen (A0.546814).
Introduce one of the most beautiful, deeply moving, and revered sacrale masterpieces of the Romantic era to your ensemble's library with this exceptional arrangement of Anton Bruckner’s Locus Iste (WAB 23)! Masterfully and reverently tailored for a standard Trombone Quartet (3 Tenor Trombones and 1 Bass Trombone).
Originally composed in 1869 as a gradual motet for the dedication of the Votivkapelle at the New Cathedral in Linz, Locus Iste ("This place was made by God") is a flawless example of Bruckner's spiritual devotion and his mastery of pure, homophonic choral textures. The natural, velvety warmth, rich lower-register resonance, and vocal blending capabilities of the trombone family make it the ultimate wind medium to capture the profound a cappella choir atmosphere of the original score.
Why this arrangement is a magnificent addition to your library:
Choral Vocal Warmth: Expertly voiced to perfectly replicate the original SATB vocal layout across the trombone choir, creating a deeply immersive, organ-like expansion of sound that showcases the instrument's noble tone.
Mastery of Legato and Phrasing (Grade 3): While staying highly comfortable in range and technically accessible for intermediate players, this piece serves as an outstanding showcase for developing collective breathing, seamless legato connections, and pristine intonation.
Balanced & Essential Parts: True to professional chamber music standards, every player is vital to the rich harmonic fabric. The soaring lyrical melodies and warm, supportive bass lines are perfectly balanced across the section.
Versatile Performance Value: An exceptionally versatile piece that fits flawlessly as an evocative opening or peaceful contrast in a trombone quartet recital, a specialized brass ensemble workshop, or as a dignified, highly respectful selection for church services, sacred ceremonies, and memorials.
Instrumentation:
Trombone 1 (Tenor Clef / High Bass Clef) Trombone 2 (Bass Clef) Trombone 3 (Bass Clef) Bass Trombone (Bass Clef) Includes Full Conductor Score and All 4 Individual Parts.
Grade 3 (Intermediate).
