Trombone players of the world should really like this. (Other folks should, too.) His "theft" of works for other instruments is beautiful, fun, moving, and just plain great. The variety of selections is good. Who needs a violin for Albinoni when you have a trombone around? Get this one!

After listening to "The Virtuoso Trombone," also by Christian Lindberg, and playing "Air" by Bach (track 8) as a solo, I bought this CD. As a trombonist, I can tell how great Christian Lindberg really is. But even my friends who hear his work are amazed at his talents. My favorite on this CD is "Overture to The Barber of Seville," but I honestly listen to all of the songs on the album and enjoy them all. Even a casual listener of classical music would love this CD and I hightly recommend it.

This CD is one that even non-classical music lovers can enjoy. It is a fun cd, especially when Lindberg shows of his skill in Overture to the Barber of Seville. I myself play trombone and Lindberg is in my mind, the premier trombonist in the world. I highly recommend this CD!

This is a very interesting and very well-done CD, arranging a number of familiar compositions for trombone with piano accompaniment. It works quite well, giving an altogether new sound to these works, old wine in new bottles, which is very enjoyable.
