They do not have keys that change the notes, the notes are changed by adjusting the length of the slide. *yes, there ARE keys on a trombone. it is for a different kind of trombone called a valve trombone. there are three keys. to change the notes, you would play with either more or less air

What clef do brass instruments use?
Tenor Trombone - Brass Band - Treble Clef (in Bflat) Orchestra - Tenor or Bass Clef (in C) Bass Trombone - Always Bass Clef (in C) Alto Trombone - Alto Clef (in C) A Bass Clef( A F Clef) All trombones are used in different things, so the examples are not specifically correct. Neither are the given clefs. It depends on the trombonist and the piece. For instance, I play in all different keys because my music varies. The keys are sort of correct as well. I will leave them there because it will help to see what I mean. Tenor trombone - Is in (sounds like concert Bflat) trombone Bflat Bass trombone - Is in (sounds like Concert Bflat) trombone Bflat Alto Trombone - Is in (sounds like Concert C) trombone C All the "sounds like" are for when the trombone plays a Bflat. The common misconception about trombone keys is that a trombone in Bflat is in C (or concert pitch) as that is what it sounds like. It is NOT. It is in Bflat.
