Female Trombonists
Neal
How many world-class trombonists can we come up with who are female?
Specifically, ones who have recorded or play with fairly widely recognized
groups as soloists. Jazz./classical/other...
I can think of none! I am ashamed of myself - if a trombonist can't come up
with any, who can? Enlighten me/us.

Abbie Conant, former principal trombonist in the
Stuttgart Radio Symphony (?) (I think).

Betty Glover was bass trombonist for the Cincinnati Symphony for many
years. Not sure if she's still around or not.

The last time I saw the Oslo Philharmonic play, the principal was a
woman. I don't know her name but she has a great sound whoever she is.

Abbie Conant is one of the best musicians I have ever had the
priviledge to hear, trombonist or otherwise. She is currently living and
teaching in Munich, I think. She does a lot of performance art, most of
it written by her husband. Her piece "Miriam" is incredible -- a tour de
force both musically and emotionally.
Abbie's sound and musicality are without equal -- I think she even
has Christian Linberg beat in some areas (I know, thats kind of a
heretical statement . . .). Incredible, effortless playing.
She has a CD of trombone and organ music thats kind of hard to
find.
Check out some back issues of the ITA Journal (from around '92) to
read some articles about her and about her trials and tribulations in the
German orchestra scene.

Annie Whirehaed - a Brisitsh Jazz trombonist
I think it's Whitehead, and I saw her once with Joe jackson's band. She didn't
get any solo space, but she had a nice, full sound.

Back when we had a symphony orchestra (sigh), our first trombonist was a
very nice woman named Heather Buchman. A very solid player.

There's an all-female big band out of New York called Diva. Give them a shot
when you're at the record store.
