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.
Instruments don't play in clefs--people do. In the orchestral world, we trombonists are expected to play in Treble, Alto, Tenor, & Bass clefs on a regular basis. Jazz world is mostly Treble & Bass, though occassionally I've seen Tenor there as well.
Switch from bass to treble clef and add three sharps/subtract three flats.
Treble clef or G clef, because it indicates the position of the note G.
It indicates the position of G

Treble clef indicates the position of the note G.

Concert pitch is non-transposing, so a C in treble Clef is STILL a C in Bass clef.
It indicates the position of G
The treble clef (not cleft) is a G clef, because it indicates the staff position of the note G.
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.
The bass clef is different from the treble clef because it is used to notate lower pitches in music, while the treble clef is used for higher pitches. The bass clef helps musicians read and play notes that are lower in pitch on instruments like the piano, cello, and trombone.
The violin does not sound at all as the trombone because firstly it is a wood and the trombone a brass instrument and second, the violin is out of treble clef and the trombone out of bass clef (however, trombonists also read treble clef in brass bands and alto and tenor clefs in orchestras) The sound of the trombone is much more similar to the cello - deep and sonorous, slightly similar to a male singing voice.
The word is CLEF. Trombone music is typically written in bass clef. However, music can be found written in tenor and alto clef. Occassionally, treble clef is used.In many older, classical pieces there were three parts written: alto, tenor, and bass. The alto trombone played in alto clef, tenor in tenor clef, and bass in bass clef. Most modern music is written in bass clef.
