What do brass instruments have valves reeds or slides?
Brass instruments can have valves or a slide, but not reeds. Brass instruments create sound by the vibrating of the player's embouchure in a mouthpiece, and the valves and slides on the instrument change the length of the tubing in the instrument which affects the pitch of the notes produced. Reeds are used in woodwind instruments to vibrate to produce a sound instead of using a mouthpiece like in brass instruments.
Which brass instrument is built with rotary valves?
I'm no brass instrument, but rotary valves are used for several instruments. French horns all seem to have them. They're pretty common on tubas as well. There are even some rotary valve trumpets out there. I don't know, though, anything about the advantages and/or disadvantages of rotary valves as opposed to the piston valves that seem to be more common for most brass instruments.

What group is a trombone in?
Typically, trombone players play trombone. Sometimes, trumpet players will attempt to play the trombone. They often must rely on valve trombones since the valve system is the same between the two instruments.
Which brass instrument is different from all the others and why?
The French horn is different from other brass instruments primarily due to its unique coiled shape and the use of a rotary valve system, which allows for a wider range of notes and greater control over tone. Unlike most brass instruments that are played with a straight or slightly curved tube, the French horn's design contributes to its distinct warm and mellow sound. Additionally, the player’s hand position in the bell can significantly affect the instrument’s timbre and intonation, setting it apart from others in the brass family.

What are the main differences between wind and brass instruments in terms of their construction, sound production, and playing techniques?
Wind instruments are typically made of wood or metal, while brass instruments are made of brass. Wind instruments produce sound by blowing air across a mouthpiece, while brass instruments produce sound by buzzing the lips into a mouthpiece. Playing techniques for wind instruments involve controlling the airflow and fingerings, while brass instruments require embouchure control and valve or slide manipulation.
How many instruments use the piston valve system?
The piston valve system is primarily used in brass instruments, with the most notable examples being the trumpet, trombone, and tuba. Additionally, some specialty instruments, like the euphonium and French horn, also utilize piston valves. Overall, while the exact number can vary, numerous brass instruments employ this system for pitch modulation and tone production.
What is the best type of valve oil to use for maintaining a tuba?
The best type of valve oil to use for maintaining a tuba is a synthetic oil specifically designed for brass instruments.

What is brass instrument and family?
Brass instruments are played by pressing the lips together and blowing air to produce a buzzing sound. A mouthpiece projects this sound into the horn, which projects it further. The pitch of the sound can be changed two ways. One is by changing the pitch of the buzz. This will only get you a certain number of notes based on the key of your instrument (harmonic series). The other way is by lengthening your instrument. The longer the lower. On a trombone, it's easy to see. You push out the slide, the pitch goes down. On valve instruments, it's a bit more complicated. Pressing a valve opens a passageway so that the air can take a detour. Pressing a certain valve lowers the pitch a certain amount and you can get all the notes you want with different combinations of valves. On a trombone, it's simply how far you push out the slide.
