How do you play a sixteenth note on trombone?
Sixteenth notes are a matter of rhythm. If you have a number four at the bottom of your time signature there are four sixteenths to each beat. If you have a six at the bottom of the time signature there are six to each dotted-quarter note beat or two to each eighth note beat, and so on and so on.
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.

What is the size of a tenor trombone?
Trombones come in many sizes.
However, the common tenor, Bb (B-flat) trombone is -- if you were to stretch the tubing out in a straight line -- nine feet long. This is what gives the instrument its fundamental pitch of Bb. By comparison, a Bb trumpet, which is pitched an octave higher than the trombone, is exactly half the length of its larger cousin: 4½ feet long.
There are trombones larger and smaller than this common Bb instrument. The contrabass trombone is typically pitched an octave below the tenor trombone. Its overall length would be 18 feet (doubled, of course). The soprano trombone (or slide trumpet) is the same length of the standard Bb trumpet, mentioned above.

What are some good jazz trombone solo pieces?
There are endless possibilities, but these are some of my favorites. For jazz, look for JJ Johnson/Kai Winding solos- "Don't Argue" was my favorite. "My Favorite Things" is also a good one, along with "When I Fall In Love". "What a wonderful world" sounds great, but its not necessarily jazz. For big band solos, my favorites are Duke Ellington/Count Basie's "Battle Royale" and Woody Herman's "Bijou" and "My Favorite Things".
Is the trombone considered to be a brass instrument?
No. It is either considered a wind, electronic or hybrid instrument. One common misconception is that the pipes are made of brass due to the fast that facade pipes are often painted gold.

Occasionally copper is used and on even rarer occasions brass is used for specialty pipes. Aluminum has also been experimented with.

What trombone did carl fontana play?
There are pictures of him taken in the 50's using Conn 44H. During the 50's and part of the 60's he used a Conn 6H. For a time in the late 60's/early 70's, he used an Earl Williams Model 6. Then he started to play a Bach model 12, occasionally using a slide of the model 8. He also owned a King (I thought it was a 2B) and an Edwards model T302 in yellow brass (although I think he seldom used them). In the last years he played with the same Edwards model T302 with a sterling silver bell. He used a Bach 11C mouthpiece most of the time, but had a large collection of different mouthpieces, mostly in the 11C range. He owned many, many Bach 11C's from different eras - his favorites marked with numbers so he knew which was which. He also owned the mouthpiece custom made by John "Peppy" Pettinato made for Bill Watrous, which was marked "PHD S4 WRW"

Can you play the trombone with braces?

Quick Tip use some dental wax on the brace from prevent it from digging into the inside of your lower lip while playing. Ask your dentist about wax for the brace.
Yes, you can. My friend uses a special mouth guard though, so if your braces are getting in the way of playing, I suggest that you look into a special mouth guard. You can probably find them at your local music store, if not, then find one on the internet. Good luck, the clarinet is a great instrument!

So, you might ask, "who introduced the orchestra to the trombone?"
What is the value of a Browning modified 12 gauge special steel shotgun built in the 1930-1940's?
This greatly depends on the condition of the gun, the grade of the wood used for the stoch and forearm*, if the wood is original and not cut or shaved and if it has the oiginal but pad. Grade of wood and condition are also very subjective. With a 12k serial number it was made around 1937. To make a very complicated answer short - if the gun is 80% (very good condition) is all original, with grade I wood*, it can be worth up to about $2500. * Does not refer to the condition of the wood but the grade or grain and coloration. The grade of the wood and engraving on the gun were usually matched, in this case Grade I, but that was not always true because of custom orders.
