How is trombone played?

Answer 1

You have to make a buzzing sound in the mouthpiece to make a sound. In order to play high notes, you tighten your lips and in order to play low notes, you relax them. If you are playing a slide Trombone, you need to put your slide in certain positions in order to play the notes correctly. If it's just a valve trombone, you have certain fingerings for notes.

Answer 2

The trombone is held with both hands. Your left hand should form a gun with your thumb and index finger. After this you will put the left hand over the bar with the bell and your index finger will go over the humps on the mouthpiece. Then the right hand goes on the bar of the actual slide and and you use your index, middle, and thumb to hold this bar. The thumb side with the finger nail should be facing you and the other two fingers should be on the other side. Then you can play the trombone.

Answer 3

The first few times you hold a trombone correctly, it feels extremely awkward. You hold it over you left shoulder, with your thumb under the brace (and if you have a trigger trombone, that's the thumb you use for the trigger), you put your index finger over the top of the mouthpiece, and hold the slide brace with one or two fingers and the thumb of your right hand. the tuning slide should be perpendicualr to your shoulder, not parallel.
