i was listening to some Stan Kenton with an ear towards the trombones.
He had some great ones, from Kai Winding to Frank Rosolino.
If you are a trombonist, or have ears for trombones, or Kenton, see:

(Featuring Rosolino)
and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYYhZ-kuU80 (Machito, With Winding in
the beginning and then Skip Layton at the end playing high note duet
with a high note trumpeter.)
That ending features Skip Layton on high trombone and Chico Alverez
on high trumpet. It was written out at Kenton's direction, by Alvarez
to feature both playing in a high range that was still comfortable for
them.
Cheers,
