A false tone is a note that isn't fit into the range of a Trombone ( those slots for every note called 'partial'), but some people playing trombone can hit with their lips at just the right tension- very little-. Hope this helped.

What was the ancestor of the modern trombone is the?

The ancestor of the modern trombone is the "sackbut," a brass instrument that emerged in the late Middle Ages. The sackbut featured a telescoping slide mechanism similar to the trombone, allowing for pitch adjustments. It was commonly used in early music ensembles and has a softer, more mellow tone compared to contemporary trombones. Over time, the sackbut evolved into the modern trombone we know today, with improvements in design and construction.

Can a Trombone have valves?

Yes. There is an instrument called a "valve trombone", which basically looks like a trombone except that the slide doesn't move and there are three valves near the mouthpiece that look a lot like trumpet valves. In fact, trumpet players are often asked to play valve trombone in middle and high school jazz bands when no regular trombone players are around to fill the seat. This is possible because the fingerings on a valve trombone are exactly the same as those on a trumpet. Some trombone players, me included, find the valve trombone to have a somewhat flatter (tone, not pitch) sound than a traditional trombone. However, a good enough musician can easily achieve a beautiful sound on a valve trombone. Additionally, there is a horn called a marching trombone that also three valves. It is similar to a baritone, but the tubing length and bore sizes are closer to those of a trombone.
