As concertmaster of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for many decades, violin virtuoso Ferdinand David was a close friend of Felix Mendelssohn, who wrote his famous Violin Concerto for him. David was additionally a sought-after teacher at the Leipzig Conservatory, editor and composer. His works are all but forgotten today, with one exception: his Concertino for trombone and orchestra. The charming work with Mendelssohnian character has firmly established itself in the trombone repertoire and is today one of the standard international audition pieces. The autograph score of the Concertino is considered lost, however in addition to the first edition the autograph of a version made by David for cello and piano was able to be tracked down and evaluated for this Urtext edition.
