What clef does a piccolo trombone play in?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

I find this website useful. It's written for piano, but I use it for my flute so it might work with trumpet. Just scroll down until you see the hyrule field music.

What are the positions for the c scale for trombone 2 octive?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Starting from the Gb on the bottom of the bass clef staff: Gb (5th) Ab (3rd) Bb (1st) C (6th) Db (5th), Eb (3rd), F (1st), Gb (5th), Ab (3rd), Bb (1st), C (3rd), Db (2nd), Eb (3rd), F (1st), Gb (flat 3rd).

Try learning the scale by the notes not the positions, it doesn't do you any good to memorize just the positions.

How do you play the E flat scale in thirds on your trombone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I believe this may be what you are asking - when your director asks you to play a scale in thirds you will be skipping notes - try the following: b-flat, d, c, e-flat, d, f, e-flat, g, f, a, g, b-flat, a, c, and end of b-flat. Do the reverse to come down the scale.

Does trombone have a different alternative name?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The word trombone derives from the Italian tromba and one (or ona). Tromba means trumpet, and one (or ona) means big. The Bb tenor trombone (or "big trumpet") is pitched one octave below the Bb trumpet, and its tubing length, at 108 inches, is twice as long as the tubing in a Bb trumpet.

Are trombones B flat instruments?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes...and no.

While trombones and trumpets both share the Bb as their fundamental pitch, they READ music differently...

The "Bb trumpet" is a transposing instrument. A written C comes out as a Bb.

The trombone is a concert pitch instrument. A written C comes out as a C.

So, trombones are PITCHED in Bb....but they READ in C, just like a flute or piano.

What are 5 facts on the trombone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

unlike other brass instruments the trombone has a slide to change pitch and one thing fun you can do is play glissed because i did a solo in my last concert and my music teacher said i could do a few glisses and told me that was one of the most fun things of playing a trombone. (i play the trombone in the school band and i am the only trombone).

Is the trombone lower than the bari sax?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Tuba, it is the longest so it creates the lowest tones. In order it would be tuba, baritone and trombone. Baritone and trombone are basically the same but baritone sounds a bit better at the lowest part of its range.

What is the purpose of the slide on a trombone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both the slide on a Trombone and the valves on a Trumpet are to play all of the different notes. (ie: press the 2 and 3rd valve on a trumpet to play G#).

music is sound, sound is compsed of "waves" or the peaks and valleys thesound travels, looks like a wave. The longer the distance between the peak and valley, the lower the note/pitch. the shorter the distance the higher the pitch. This is best seen if you pluck a guitar string. You can see the string vibrate to the sound wave. Shorten the lengthen of the string and you produce a high pitch.

The slide and vavles do this in the trumpet and trombone. Pressing the valves re-channels or directs the sound wave produce by the player's lips through shorter or longer tubing/distance. The trombone this is done by moving the slide up or down.

Describe How Sound Is Produced On Your Trombone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A trombone is a brass instrument, therefore its sound is produced by you blowing air through your mouth and vibrating your lips. the octave is changed by how fast or slow you vibrate your lips.
