2016 update
Some works have been added to this list for 2016 shown as [NEW2016].
Some works will be deleted from this list in 2017 shown as [DELETE2017].
Please note that there is also updated information in the Introduction.
Many of the works on this list are available for purchase in more than one edition. Unless
indicated otherwise, the editions listed here are not prescribed editions, but a guide to what is
available. Schools and teachers are advised to research editions before advising students about
sheet music purchases. Depending on the work, particular editions may be preferred because
of their closeness to the composers original score or editorial treatment of matters such as
dynamics or fingering. It is the responsibility of schools and teachers to ensure that the edition
used by students is in fact an edition of the listed work, not a simplified version or an
arrangement. Editions that must be used will be annotated with only edition to be used. In
these cases, the prescribed work is a specific transcription or arrangement.
As required, the list includes information about how many movements of a work are required to
be played and/or how many works from a collection may be played. Please note that any one
means that only one movement or work from a collection may be played, whole work to be
played means exactly that and any one or more means that at least one movement or work
should be played but more than one may be played.
In 2017 a revised VCE Music study design will be implemented. Information about the revised
study will be available during 2016 and support materials including Advice for Teachers and
Examination specifications, criteria and sample material will be published during 2016 and early
2017. The VCAA Bulletin will provide updates as material is published.
The Trombone list is reviewed on a regular basis. Suggestions of works for inclusion or deletion
should be sent to curriculum.vcaa@edumail.vic.gov.au with the subject line Attention
Performing Arts Manager, Trombone list. For suggestions of works to be included on the list:
provide a copy of the sheet music, publication details and, as appropriate, a description of
the lines/parts to be performed
indicate which category the work should be listed in
briefly describe why the work should be included on the list.

The program for the Music Performance end-of-year performance examination for Trombone must
consist of at least four works. The program must include at least:
one unaccompanied work
two works with live accompaniment. Accompaniment may be provided by piano or another
instrument appropriate to the work. Different instruments may be used to accompany different
works in the program
two works which are examples of music composed since 1910.
Each title listed constitutes one work. Where a work comprises several movements, more than one
movement may be performed unless otherwise specified. These movements together will count as
one work.
Repeats, cadenzas and tutti passages are optional. Accompanists are not required to play all bars
of the introduction or lengthy passages following the conclusion of the solo part. Ornamentations
and embellishments are encouraged in the Baroque works.
Instrument
This list includes works for both tenor trombone in treble, alto, tenor and bass clefs and for bass
trombone. The selection of works for performance must take into consideration the range and the
tone colour of the work to suit the instrument; for example, works for bass trombone may not be
suitable for tenor trombone. It is recommended that students use only one instrument during the
end-of-year performance examination. Further information is provided in relation to specific works.
Accompaniment
Any work that uses a recorded backing track must be performed WITH the backing track and
WITHOUT the recorded solo track. Depending on the recording, this may require the playback
device to have a right/left balance control. Performers are expected to supply their own playback
device and extension cord.
Sample programs
Sample programs are provided as advice only. The works need not be performed in the order
listed. Sample programs for Trombone are provided at the end of this list.
