The Electronic Trombone

Samuel Terence Nolan

About this exposition

Name: Samuel Terence Nolan Main Subject: Bass Trombone Research Supervisor: Pete Saunders Title of Research: The Electronic Trombone Research Question: What is the best way to create an Electronic Trombone capable of participating in the creation of electronic music across multiple genres? Summery of Results: By following the development of electronic music throughout history and analyzing its use in the present environment, my research paper outlines the artistic potential of an electronic trombone. Though interviews with leading electronic brass artists my paper then goes onto deconstruct the two main brass electronic interfaces, determine the benefits and weaknesses of each. These results are then collated and a new interface with the capability of working across all genres of electronic music is designed. This new interface gives Electronic Trombone artists a new tool which they can use to greatly enhances their creativity and the opportunity to create deeper emotional connections with their audiences. Biography: Sam Nolan is an Australian bass trombonist born in Brisbane. After graduating from the Queensland Conservatoire of Music, Sam became a member of Musica Viva’s Best of Brass quintet and a freelance musician working with ensembles and artists such as Jeff Mills, Natalie Cole, David Campbell, Bill Watrous and the Queensland Symphony Orchestra. Since moving to The Hague in 2014 Sam has spent his time between studying at the Royal Conservatoireworking as a bass trombone and bass sackbut player throughout the country with ensembles including the Residenti Orkest and the Orchestra of the 18th Century.
