The Sacred Trombone

The Sacred Trombone
Since the 14th century, the trombone has had a close association with church music, often employed in liturgical settings. The Sacred Trombone showcases this heritage through a collection of 19th- and 20th-century works for trombone and organ, performed by Christian Lindberg and Gunnar Idenstam. The program features Gardner Read’s primal Invocation, Liszt’s rarely heard Hosannah based on a chorale, and two Invocations by Petr Eben, shaped by clarity and emotional depth. Alfred Schnittke's Schall und Hall was composed for church acoustics and creates a unique spatial soundscape. Jan Sandström’s Lacrima, Lacrime and Anders Hillborg’s U-Tangia-Na—the latter featuring a hidden Morse code message—push expressive and technical boundaries. Together, these works form a contemplative and powerful tribute to the sacred voice of the trombone.
