3. James Horner – Titanic (Main theme)
▶️ Play the trombone sheet music of Titanic by James Horner
Composed for Titanic (1997), this work is today one of the best-known film songs in the world. James Horner built the melody around a harmonic sequence typical of his compositions from the 90s: simple chords, a very clear main theme, and a slow progression allowing the music to take root in the listener’s mind. The song won numerous awards, including the Oscar, the Golden Globe and several Grammy Awards. Its success went beyond the boundaries of the film to become an independent cultural phenomenon.
Originally, Céline Dion was not very enthusiastic about recording the song. And yet, the first take recorded as a test was perfect and immediately used for the film. Since then, the song has become the worldwide success we know!
The Tomplay sheet music for trombone, intended for intermediate level, allows you to play the melody with a high-quality orchestral accompaniment faithful to the original. In addition, an MTB exam version is available to help you shine at your auditions!
4. Lady Gaga – Shallow (A Star Is Born)
▶️ Play the trombone sheet music of Shallow by Lady Gaga
Released in 2018 with the film A Star Is Born, this song became the symbol of an artistic rebirth for Lady Gaga. After years marked by extravagant pop, the artist surprised audiences by revealing a much more intimate and vulnerable side. Inspired by the great cinema stories telling the rise and fall of stars, the music accompanies the journey of the character Ally, a young singer who gradually finds the courage to embrace her artistic identity.
A frequently told anecdote concerns the recording of certain musical scenes: Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper insisted on actually singing on set, in front of the audience, rather than miming to a pre-recorded track. This decision gave rise to a raw interpretation, sometimes imperfect, but deeply human. It is precisely this sincerity that touches the listener so much and that makes the melody particularly moving.
With Tomplay, you can perform this magnificent song on the trombone in an immersive musical environment, accompanied by a professional orchestra and supported by interactive tools designed for musical practice.
5. Ben E. King – Stand by Me
▶️ Play the trombone sheet music of Stand by Me by Ben E. King
Inspired by a 1950s gospel song, Stand by Me became, in 1961, one of the monuments of soul music. The distinctive bass line, the simple harmonic progression and Ben E. King’s warm voice forged a musical pillar of unconditional love.
This piece, featured in countless films and series, is a must for romantic events and Valentine’s Day in particular.
Tomplay offers you a version for all levels with professional accompaniment, to play this classic in a rich and inspiring musical setting. The MTB exam version allows you to prepare as well as possible for your auditions. Or when learning rhymes with pleasure!
6. Stevie Wonder - I just called to say I love you
▶️ Play the trombone sheet music of I Just Called to Say I Love You by Stevie Wonder
Composed in 1984 for the film The Woman in Red, this song is a flagship track by Stevie Wonder. Unlike many love songs associated with a specific date or a particular event, Stevie Wonder deliberately wrote lyrics that break free from calendars: no need for Christmas, Valentine’s Day or a birthday to say “I love you”. This simple but powerful choice no doubt explains the song’s universal success.
Upon its release, the song enjoyed huge international success and even won the Oscar for Best Original Song. A landmark moment for Stevie Wonder, who then used his platform to deliver a committed speech. Behind its gentle and accessible melody lies a deeply engaged artist, capable of combining emotion, simplicity and a universal message.
The Tomplay sheet music for trombone allows you to play this great classic with professional accompaniment and interactive features such as note names and note recognition that facilitate learning.
7. Percy Sledge – When a Man Loves a Woman
▶️ Play the trombone sheet music of When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge
Released in 1966, this piece became an anthem of American soul music. It was recorded at the famous FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, a historic place where many landmark R&B and soul works were created.
The song was composed by Calvin Lewis and Andrew Wright, but it was above all Percy Sledge’s unique interpretation that gave it its identity. His slightly broken voice, along with the simple and striking orchestration, contributed to making this hit an essential love song.
In the decades that followed, the song was covered by many artists, notably by Michael Bolton in 1991. Even today, it is frequently used in films, advertisements and ceremonies.
Tomplay offers you the opportunity to perform this hit on the trombone in a realistic musical environment thanks to professional orchestral accompaniment. Our sheet music is available for all levels, so that everyone can express their love through music.
Whether you are looking for tenderness, passion or poetry… music will always be the most beautiful language to say “I love you”. 💕
