LISTEN!
"The important thing is not what you sound like. It's what you want to sound like. I have people who come to me and only listen to themselves – they are not conceiving." – Arnold Jacobs
Here are some links to seminal performances of trombone solo repertoire (yeah, there's a lotta Morceau Symphonique) and some other tidbits. I assume the performers are OK with these being online – if not, they may vanish. You'll need to click to see who's who. Enjoy! (Hopefully, these links will remain un-broken.)
Also, Branford Marsallis shares some wisdom here.
