Description:
Inspired by the tale of a legendary folk hero; Adolphus Hailstork's tour-de-force for trombone and piano is a riveting portrayal of the steely strength and stamina of John Henry; a former slave who helped build the American railroads and ultimately outperformed a steam engine. This composition uses quotes from the spiritual Every Time I Feel the Spirit and the folk song The Ballad of John Henry. For advanced players. Dur.: 13'
