Orchestral Recordings for Low Brass

By Gerald Sloan

This book consists of annotations of 382 recordings recommended by 83 teachers, performers, and students of the low brass family.Professor Sloan's survey of teachers, performers and students of low brass instruments was only part of his exhaustive research. He includes many comparative criticisms from publications pertaining to the recording industry and is the holder of his own strong opinions gained by years of critical listening. His recorded collection is sizable-i.e. he has over twenty recordings of the Tchaikovsky Sixth Symphony Professor Sloan most definitely has achieved his goal of offering a "most wanted list" featuring the low brass family. I recommend the book for all interested musicians who would like an extensive listing/comparison of exemplary recorded low brass playing. -Ronald Bishop (1934-2013)
