Eltham High School Stage Band, Conducted by Monty Mackenzie. Recorded at Mid Year Concert on June 21 2018.
A tribute to one of the greatest jazz trombonists ever, this is a beautiful arrangement by Mike Tomaro of J.J. Johnson's “Lament”. Fittingly, this will feature the trombone section for the first part of the arrangement followed by a solo for a piano being performed by Oliverio Furfori Y Perry.
