Hello all!





As many of you already know, I've been a huge fan of John Williams and his music ever since my Dad brought me to see Star Wars as a little boy. I've had the privilege of working with him on numerous occasions and in many capacities during my career. Over the years I've done many arrangements of John Williams' music for various sizes of trombone ensembles and recently taken to recording overdub versions of myself playing all the parts; check them out at the links below. Also check out the youtube links below of some of these arrangements performed with a full trombone choir.





John Williams' music is rightfully in high demand and permission to publish arrangements is closely guarded. The onus is on the trombone community to demonstrate that it will be viable and worthwhile for the licensing to be granted.





In order to have a chance of getting permission to publish these arrangements, I need to demonstrate beyond a shadow of a doubt the there is a real demand out there. This is where I need YOUR help. Please sign this petition before FEBRUARY 15th with your name, position and comments of support for having my arrangements published and made available to the public!!









Thanks!!!
