Debussy - Jimbo’s Lullaby from “Children’s Corner” for Trombone Quartet recording Mantia performed with the MetropolitanJimbo's Lullaby is the second in a series of six pieces from Debussy's "Children's Corner Suite". They are simple in style and light in character. The work is a depiction of a lullaby sung to a stuffed Elephant. This little gem of under four minutes has been beautifully edited for advanced performers by Ralph Sauer for four Trombones. The bottom part, which features a great "Elephant style" solo, can be performed on Tuba, Contrabass or Bass Trombone.
