30 October 2010 > Musickosmos Collective Memory Project...
Following on from the success of the premiere performance of Musickosmos earlier in the month, Tromans is calling for contributions from the public for what is to be called the Musickosmos Collective Memory Project. This will entail collecting together audience documentation of the performance in any of the following forms: (1) video footage (mobile or other); (2) written reflection on the personal or collective impact of the performance; or (3) any other contribution in terms of memories of the event. Feel free to email through this site to offer any such materials (several emails have been received already).

11 January 2010 > New commission announcement...
Tromans has been jointly-commissioned by Birmingham Jazz and THSH (Birmingham's Town Hall & Symphony Hall) to write a new concert-length work for his Debop Band. The new work will be premiered on October 8th 2010 at Symphony Hall's Commuter Jazz/Rush Hour Blues session. It is followed on the same evening by a concert by the Houston Symphony Orchestra which culminates in a performance of Holst's Planets' Suite with a backdrop of NASA high-definition footage of the aforementioned heavenly bodies. For this reason, the commission is to have a 'cosmic' theme. There will be more information to come as the work develops throughout the year...
