That depends on the instrument. For example, Trumpet music is typically written in treble clef, while Trombone and tuba music is in bass clef. And, of course, variations on instruments (bass trumpet) can differ from the convention.

You can play any instrument in any clef, you just need to be able to understand that clef. But yes, saxophone sheet music is generally notated in the treble clef. Well, at least I know for sure that tenor and alto sax music is, but those are the only types of sax I have played. I can't say for sure that baritone and soprano sax are.

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.
