  (see Soloists and Band for version with band accompaniment) This composition was composed for Paul Compton and the Oklahoma State University Wind Ensemble. The Ballad is lyrical with long lines, rich harmonies, and the trombone part uses the high tessitura frequently. It is rhapsodic in form and has a trombone cadenza towards the end. Three variations follow that are based on motivic ideas from the Ballad. The first is in the style of a waltz, the second is a tango, and the last movement, a stomp.  This work is recorded by Paul Compton on the Emeritus label Trombonarama

  Contrasts was commissioned in 2009 by John DelVento and was made possible by him receiving a grant from the Co-op Press Commission Assistance Grant Program. The title came about as a result of the two contrasting sections, but as the piece progressed, it also reflects the contrasts of tessitura, articulation, dynamics, and sudden changes in musical ideas that occur. The first slow section is in ABA form with a cadenza at the end that leads to the Allegro. The Allegro section is in arch form (ABCBA) where the C section serves as a development of ideas from the A and B sections as well as introducing a new idea that is treated canonically.

  This three movement sonata for trombone or euphonium is filled with lyricism and jazz harmonies. The opening movement is a moderato in sonata form that is followed by a slow second movement that varies a two part theme. The last movement is more angular and agitated. This work is recorded by Peter Howell on the Emeritus label Trombonarama CD.
