Something to Read
This book on JJ Johnson is a welcome addition to the Trombonists library. It covers everything from his relationship with Quincy Jones to transcriptions of solos. Although it is pricey, it is a comprehensive resource on this pioneer.
Something to Listen to
John Rojak debuted a new solo recording this year. As usual for him, he brings the Bass Trombone literature forward here and sounds great doing it.
Something for your Horn
This case from Pro Tec looks good, but also does its main job of keeping your Trombone safe. The nylon exterior is rugged and the interior has a snug fit to keep your horn sage.
Something to Listen With
This shockingly affordable gadget is like magic. This is a Bluetooth receiver that will play music wirelessly from your phone or other device. The key is the output. The device will output to RCA cables. This is a great way to get the benefits of wireless combined with some older speakers you probably already have.
Something for the Practice Room
This is a great addition to your practice room for resting your horn. We found the stand to be solid and was compact at the same time.
Something to Watch
Although not entirely accurate to Glenn Miller's real life, this is a still a good film about this Trombonist's life.
Something to Play
This arrangement of The Swan from Carnival of the Animals is a great addition to your library.
We wish you all the best with your Christmas shopping.
