Leif Segerstam, cond.Only one piece I know of began life as a cello sonata, then became a cello concerto, and was finally transfigured into a concerto for trombone. It happens to be this one, probably the most famous work and the final one completed by Swedish composer Gunnar de Frumerie (1908-87), who created this adaption for the great virtuoso Christian Lindberg, heard here.
