The Hot Trombone
Wednesday, June 20, 2007
The trombone, an instrument that has rarely been invited into the spotlight, may have hit the big time. This season there are four major trombone premieres in the United States. Joseph Alessi, principal trombonist in the New York Philharmonic, tells us why the trombone has become the "It" instrument and performs live off his new album, "Return to Sorrento."
