Hello, I am seeking rep suggestions for good quality, professional level arrangements and compositions
for brass quartet or brass trios as shown below. These can include chamber works, third stream,
and the avant garde. Publisher info is always welcome!
I have listed some repertoire for those players interested in these instrumentations as well.

While I am seeking mostly professional level works, if you know of other repertoire which you feel
has merit, please feel free to include those items, along with an approximate level of
Professional/Advanced/Intermediate/Elementary.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

I - QUARTET of trumpet, horn, trombone and tuba
Forsyth, Aphorisms
Kont, Quartett
Kulesha, DIvertimento
Schuller, Little Brass Music

II - TRIO of trumpet, horn, and tuba
need suggestions.........

III - TRIO of trumpet, trombone and tuba
Meinrad Schmidt, Trio
Zaninelli, Berlin Suite

IV - TRIO of horn, trombone and tuba
Forsyth, Bachiannas Capensis
Hydas, Trio
Lendvay, Five Movements in Quotation Marks
Francesc Xavier Piquer, Trilation
Stevens, Triangles

(end)

If this is the John Stevens work you are citing as "Triangles," I recall it is for horn, trombone, and tuba rather than trumpet.

A few years ago, I was in a tuba trio with Jay Rozen and Christopher Meeder called "THREE"... Jay compiled (and commissioned / arranged etc) a huge amount of great repertoire, renaissance to avant-garde. I'm not sure if he's on here or not, but Jay would be the guy to contact.
