by David Adler

A jazz guitarist with a penchant for provocation once called the guitar “the lamest jazz instrument... besides the trombone." The big horn, with its awkard slide and low, nasal sound, is certainly a jazz underdog. Its important role in big bands is indisputable, but it is generally not thought of as a frontman instrument.

Conrad Herwig: Osteology

Read "Osteology" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan

by C. Andrew Hovan
February 1, 2000

The trombone in jazz has often taken a backseat to the more extroverted and visceral sounds of the saxophone and trumpet, occupying the position of an ignored stepchild, so to speak.

Conrad Herwig: The Latin Side of John Coltrane

Read "The Latin Side of John Coltrane" reviewed by Douglas Payne

by Douglas Payne
April 1, 1997
