Joannes Rochut (1881-1952) is well known to trombonists for the three volumes of "Melodious Etudes for Trombone" which he transcribed from the "Vocalises" of Marco Bordogni. These books, first published by Carl Fischer (New York) in 1928, were arranged when Rochut was principal trombonist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra (1925-1930).
Rochut, a first prize winner at the Paris Conservatorie, was an organizer of the first of the famous "Concerts Koussevitzky" in Paris which brought him to the attention of the then music director of the Boston Symphony, Serge Koussevitzky. Koussevitzky brought Rochut to Boston where he stayed until celebrated friction between the Frenchman and the Russian trombonist Jacob Raichman (who had been brought by Koussevitzky to the Boston Symphony as co-principal trombone in 1926) led Rochut to leave Boston and return to France.

The Douze Duos de J. S. Bach are arrangements by Rochut for two trombones drawn from the Two Part Inventions (for piano) by Bach. Originally published by M. Delfaux & A. Legay (Paris) in 1914, they are now out of print and in the public domain.
Rochut's arrangement compares to Bach's original (Rochut retained Bach's original keys) with the following numbering:

The 25 pages which make up Rochut's Douze Duos de J.S. Bach were photographed with a high resolution digital camera and subsequently transferred to .pdf format for easy download. The files are large, about 1 MB per page, but I did this so the quality and resolution would be the best possible. On a cable modem or DSL, the files will download quickly, but with a regular modem, download time may be considerable.
