Whether it\u2019s Gioacchino Rossini\u2019s overture to \u201eWilliam Tell\u201c or the Beatles song \u201cHey Jude\u201c \u2013 the Italian trombone quartet \u201eTrombonisti Italiani\u201c stops at no musical style. Founded in 1996 by Lito Fontana it consists of four of Italy\u2019s very best trombonists.
The four musicians captivate audience with their perfect technique, precise ensemble playing and their sensitive interpretation on their musical journey from baroque and classical music, contemporary music to Rag Time and the most famous modern Italian songs. With their first album \u201cTarantella 0-2-2-2-3-2-\u2026.\u201d they showed how simple it is to change from classical to contemporary music by their expressiveness and ease of playing.
Their follow-up CD \u201cBossa&Bond\u201d continued the musical journey and demonstrated their impressive musical credentials with a wide ranging program of diverse music and interpretation. With their inimitable spirit the ensemble breathes new life into some classic piece of music history with the special temperament of southern Europe. After these two productions of different fields the four exceptional musicians embarked on a new project.
Steven Mead, probably the world\u2019s best euphonium soloist, was intrigued by this unique project. As a result, four trombones and one euphonium create this complete new sound on the CD \u201c4 valves\/4 slides\u201d. The technical brilliance of Steven combined with the inimitable \u201cDolcezza\u201d of the four trombones sound create an striking new experience in sound. It\u2019s a magical formula which give the register of low brass a new meaning. With classical romances, virtuoso pieces and modern jazz pieces the appeal to a large audience.
Trombonisti Italiani give concerts in very different places beginning with small concerts in historical places, small events up to big concert halls. They play well known arrangements but have also a great number of specially arranged pieces by famous Maurice Bale and other arrangers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
