Surfaces

for Solo Bass Trombone

Commissioned by Dr. David Begnoche, Professor of Trombone at Texas Christian University, for the annual Fort Worth Trombone Summit, Surfaces explores the expressive and physical breadth of the solo bass trombone.

The title reflects the piece’s shifting textural landscapes — articulated clarity against sustained resonance, rhythmic propulsion against spacious openness, weight against agility. Rather than relying on extended techniques, the work draws its intensity from contrast, pacing, and the inherent color of the instrument across registers.

Surfaces challenges the performer to shape long structural arcs while navigating:

  • Mixed meters and rhythmic displacement
  • Wide registral contrasts
  • Articulated and legato textural interplay
  • Dynamic control across the full range of the instrument
The piece rewards performers who are comfortable projecting both authority and nuance in a solo setting.

Ideal for:

  • Collegiate recitals
  • Festival performances
  • Advanced undergraduate and graduate study
  • Contemporary solo repertoire programming
Duration: 5 minutes
Difficulty: Advanced collegiate / professional

A substantial addition to the modern bass trombone solo repertoire.
