Ralph Sauer has beautifully edited 13 Bel Canto studies for Tenor Trombone by three Italian operatic masters: Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti. These studies are the in the style of vocalises, (having no words) and can be performed unaccompanied, or with their original accompaniments.

The Bel Canto studies which are in bass clef, are from the same era as the famous Bordogni studies and can be used by intermediate performers.

These 13 works are a wonderful addition to the Trombone repertoire and can be performed on recitals, auditions and juries. Altogether there is almost 25 minutes of music in this collection.

Sauer was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and graduated from the Eastman School of Music where he studied with Emory Remington. He was the Principal Trombonist of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra from 1968 to 1974. During that time, he was also the Principal Trombonist with the Canadian Opera Company and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and taught at the University of Toronto.

In 1974, Sauer was named Principal Trombonist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic by Zubin Mehta. He made his Los Angeles Philharmonic concerto debut in 1979, performing Kazimierz Serocki's Concerto for Trombone and Orchestra with Zubin Mehta conducting - a work whose U.S. premiere Sauer gave at the Eastman School of Music in 1965. In March 2003, Sauer premiered Augusta Read Thomas’s Trombone Concerto with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. He was also a frequent performer with the Philharmonic's New Music Group. He retired from the orchestra in 2006.

Sauer has appeared as soloist with many orchestras and has given master classes and recitals throughout Europe, Scandinavia, Japan, Mexico, Costa Rica, Canada, and the United States. He has appeared at the Stratford, Marlboro, and Aspen summer music festivals and was visiting professor at the Eastman School of Music as well as an instructor with the New World Symphony (Miami) and the International Brass Festival in Melbourne (Australia). Currently, Sauer is on the faculty of Music Academy of the West and Arizona State University. He has taught many prominent trombonists, including Christian Lindberg.

Sauer is a founding member of Summit Brass, and is a clinician for Shires trombones.

He is featured on a number of recordings, including:
A recording of works by Teleman, Handel, Haydn, and others (with Zita Carno on keyboards) (Crystal Records)
The Mahler Symphony No. 3 , with Esa-Pekka Salonen conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic (with Anna Larsson, contralto; Donald Green, posthorn; Martin Chalifour, violin; Paulist Boy Choristers of California, Women of the Los Angeles Master Chorale) (Sony Classical)

Two discs of orchestral excerpts for trombone with commentary (Summit Records, OrchestraPro series). These are among the most sought after discs for those preparing for orchestral trombone auditions.
