Ernst Sachse was a German composer and trombonist born on September 6, 1802, and died on March 24, 1848. He is best known for his contributions to brass music, particularly his compositions for trombone.
One of his most notable works is the Trombone Concertino in F major, Op. 34. This piece is a staple in the trombone repertoire and is frequently performed by trombonists around the world. The Concertino consists of three movements: Allegro moderato, Andante maestoso, and Rondo. It showcases the technical capabilities of the trombone while providing a melodic and expressive musical experience.
