A Trombone uses a slide. A Trumpet uses valves. Also, the trombone is pitched lower than the trumpet, and has a different tone quality. If you think of brass instruments as voices, the trumpet is the soprano, and the trombone is the tenor.

They make sound. The harp is a stringed instrument and the sound is made by vibrating strings while the trumpet is a wind instrument and the sound is made by the vibration of the players lips.

Both are typically metallic horns with tone and pitch changed by the distance air must travel, and the mouthpiece shape. Both can have a slide or a valve setup to adjust pitch.

A trombone is typically a lower pitch naturally than a trumpet, based on the size of the mouthpiece and bell.

There is only one similarity between the two instruments and that is that they both have three valves. If u want to switch from trumpet to another instrument I would prefer the Euphonium that is what i did but i still play both instruments.
