Duett for trombone and double bass
Duett for trombone and double bass is a musical work by the English composer Edward Elgar.
The duet was composed as wedding gift to Frank Weaver, a brother of Helen Weaver〔Moore, p.132: "That was Frank Weaver, the brother of Helen."〕 to whom the composer had been engaged some four years earlier,〔McVeagh, p.9: "In 1883 Elgar became engaged to Helen Weaver ... but the following year the engagement was broken off."〕 and presented to him on 1 August 1887 when he married Fannie Jones.〔FreeBMD record: Frank William Weaver married Fannie Jones in Droitwich, Worcestershire, 1887, ref. 6c 511〕 Weaver was about a year older than Elgar;〔England and Wales census, 1891: Frank William Weaver, age 25, boot manufacturer, with wife Fannie and daughter Marguerite, living at Severn Lodge, Worcester St. Nicholas〕 he was a shoemaker and an amateur double bass player, and Elgar played the trombone.〔Editor's Note in the Yorke Edition publication of the work, 1970〕 Frank and Helen Weaver were among the children of William Weaver, a shoe merchant whose shop was in Worcester High Street, opposite Elgar's father's music shop.〔England and Wales census, 1861: William Weaver, boot and shoe maker, 84 High Street, Worcester, with wife Jane and children Ada Clara, Frank and Ellen (Helen)〕
The manuscript was inherited by one of Frank Weaver's sons, and was eventually published by Rodney Slatford (Yorke Edition) in 1970.
