What are the slide positions for a trombone?

The slide has seven positions Trombones work by using the slide to change the length of the tubing, which controls the pitch of the sound. The slide has seven positions, counted in order from the 1st position (toward you) to the 7th position (fully extended). However, there are no position markers on the tubing.

What position is high G on a trombone?

A good example is the high G on 2nd position, where you have to adjust the slide to somewhere in between 1st and 2nd position to play it in tune. Try playing G, B, and D on 4th position without moving the slide on your trombone and without adjusting the pitch with your embouchure.

How do you memorize trombone notes?

When you look at the white keys on a piano, you are seeing A B C D E F G over and over again from low to high. This is an easier way to learn the trombone note names as youve known the alphabet from A to G by heart for a long time. Rhymes only work if you remember them, plus you must learn a new one for every clef.

Is trombone the hardest instrument to learn?

While it may not be the easiest instrument to master, its achievable with consistent practice and guidance.

What position is B sharp on trombone?

B sharp is actually the enharmonic (two notes that are the same pitch with different names) for C natural, which would be 3rd position for C above the staff, or 6th position for low C on the staff.

Is trombone in C or BB?

For trombones, why does sheet music notation differ from the fundamental tone of the instrument? Although the trombones fundamental tone is B♭, unlike for a trumpet, the instruments sheet music is always written for C. This is likely due to how the trombone came about.
