Letter from James Morrison

In 1991, James Morrison wrote to Allan Zavod about the prospect of Allan composing a new Concerto for the Trombone

"With the huge musical and critical success of your trumpet concerto, I am understandably thrilled that you are considering a trombone concerto"

"As you already know, I am amongst the many whom consider you to be one of the great innovators in this compositional style, and unique in the way you can bring the orchestra and jazz musicians together."

"The prospect of working with you again and playing a new concerto is very exciting and I look forward to another fabulous musical collaboration."
