The Sound of the Season: "A Caroler's Fanfare" by Ehren Valmé
Commissioned by Joseph Alessi and The Juilliard Trombone Choir Brass in 2019, "A Caroler's Fanfare" intertwines classic Christmas hymn melodies in a succinct 2-minute composition for 12 trombones. The piece can be heard on the album "Holiday Classics" and is available on all major streaming platforms.
David Childs, renowned Euphonium Soloist, noted in Brass Band World: "Conducted and directed by trombone royalty, Joseph Alessi, this Christmas cracker of a CD rings in the holiday season with A Caroler’s Fanfare, an original flourish of exciting colours and textures in which composer and bass trombonist, Ehren Valmé, makes full use of the 12-piece ensemble’s sonic capabilities.”
