JS Bach’s music has the unique quality of transcribing well for practically any instrument, and his collection, gives the trombonist an opportunity to demonstrate musicianship and work in close partnership with the pianist. Some of the pieces were not just written by J. S. but also contributed to by several other family members. For instance, the March (BWV Anh 122) is generally accepted by scholars to have been written by C.P.E. Bach.
