  • Pages, V.1 (Duck Soup (New ®1.4-FINAL))
    Duck Soup § Clark Winslow Ross for Bass Trombone and Piano Commissioned by Kenneth Knowles through the assistance of The Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council ©1994 (®2002) 2 DUCK SOUP (1994) CLARK WINSLOW ROSS Composed in 1994 at the request of trombonist Ken Knowles and funded by the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council, Duck Soup was conceived as a virtuosic piece for bass trombone and piano combining elements of play, jazz, and mystery. The title, taken from the Marx brothers movie of the same name, is meant to reflect the more lighthearted aspects of the work, but is also a reference to Ken Knowles’ avid hobby of bird-watching,. At times, I also had the music of jazz musician Charlie Parker, known as ‘the bird,’ in mind while composing this, although there are no overt references to his music; just an occasional foray into a more “jazzy” feel in some sections. Another composer about whom the same can be said was Olivier Messiaen, whose used bird songs in his music extensively. Again, no specific Messiaen elements or bird songs exist in this work, only occasional moments when such elements are hinted at. Duck Soup was revised in 2002 for a reading organized by the Canadian Music Centre. It was premiered in February of 1994 by Ken Knowles and Kristina Szutor. BIOGRAPHY Clark Winslow Ross is Associate Professor at Memorial University of Newfoundland's School of Music, where he teaches composition, theory, electronic music, orchestration, and classical guitar. He is one of Canada’s more active composers, with over 20 commissions and many performances of his works throughout Canada, in England, and the United States since moving to Newfoundland in the fall of 1992.

Waltz (reprise) § Clark Winslow Ross 11 Short Piano Pieces (1980-98) Clark Winslow Ross 11 Short Piano Pieces (1980-98) is a collection of piano compositions written over a fairly long period of time. Most are for beginning-to-intermediate pianists, but the last four are more demanding. The pieces that have very little in common, save their brevity. They can be played independently of one another, or in any combination of the performer’s choice. Waltz was written for the 1994 Kiwanis Music Festival of Greater Toronto as a theme on which young composition students were to write variations, and McGillicuddy’s Rant was written in 1980, the year I started studying composition. This also exists in a version for classical guitar with numerous variations. I played it for my guitar teacher many years ago, before I had come up with a name for it, and, for reasons I have never been able to fathom, he suggested the name McGillicuddy’s Rant. I felt the pentatonic tune had a vaguely Scottish, folk-like quality, and although it bears little resemblance to a Rant, I did not know that at the time, so the name stuck. The two inventions were commissioned by Frederick Harris Publishing for possible use in the Royal Conservatory of Music graded piano albums, aimed at earlier grades, and the C-E-G Prelude was written much later (1998), also as a relatively easy student piece.

  • Canadian Solo Trombone Recital Repertoire: an Annotated Bibliography
    Canadian solo trombone recital repertoire: An annotated bibliography by Dale Sorensen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Dale Sorensen, 2015 Canadian solo trombone recital repertoire: An annotated bibliography Dale Sorensen Doctor of Musical Arts Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto 2015 Abstract The first major Canadian compositions for solo trombone were written in the 1950s, a time when Canadian concert music composers began to flourish. Since then, more than 240 Canadian works for solo trombone (including alto, tenor and bass) have been composed. This annotated bibliography is a comprehensive examination of 135 of these works, delimited to include those composed in a 60-year period from 1952 to 2012, in two subsets of the repertoire typically performed in a standard recital: music for unaccompanied trombone, and music for trombone with piano accompaniment. The performance and/or study of Canadian music is a curricular requirement in many Canadian school music programs, and the performance of Canadian works is often mandatory for recitals and solo competitions. An annotated bibliography is an important resource that allows performers, teachers and students to identify and evaluate a body of musical works. The present document responds to the demand for such a resource by musicians searching specifically for Canadian solo trombone music, and significantly expands the scope of such previous research. The works chosen for inclusion in this study are presented in five sections based on instrumentation (divided by alto, tenor or bass trombone, and by unaccompanied solos or works ii with piano accompaniment – at the time of writing there were no unaccompanied alto trombone solos).
