In the 1960s Malcolm Arnold wrote a series of unaccompanied fantasies for the trumpet, horn,trombone and tuba. The pieces became very popular with generations of brass players. It was a great pleasure to meet Sir Malcolm a few years before he died and present him with copies of my Fantasies, telling him his own compositions were a great influence on me.
It was only after I had finished and heard the Trombone Fantasy performed that I realised the influence the Gordon Jacob Trombone Concerto had on the opening. The opening Brilliante is followed by a slower melodic theme very Celtic in style. This ends with the player having to hold a long F major chord.The Scerzando tests the agility of the performer with its range, flutter tongueing and glissandos. The piece finishes with a short recapitulation of the main theme.
