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.
