From the internet on a review of the biography of Davis Shuman: "This dissertation documents the life and work of the pioneering trombone soloist, Davis Shuman (1912-1966). An early champion of the solo trombone, he was active in numerous areas of music, including teaching at Juilliard and the Music Academy of the West, principal trombone with the American Symphony Orchestra, regular recitals at new York's Town hall, and premieres of works by dozen of composers, all of which contributed to his reputation and influence on twentieth century trombone literature.While the history of the trombone stretches back more than 500 years, its role as a solo instrument has only recently bloomed. With few exceptions, it was not until the mid-twentieth century that trombonists were able to establish a career as a soloist. When Davis Shuman gave a solo trombone recital in 1947 at Town Hall in New York City, the repertoire available to perform was limited. In the next twenty years of his career, he would commission and premiere works by Ernest Bloch, Vincent Persichetti, Darius Milhaud, Tibor Serly, and Henry Cowell, to name but a few."
