Hi, I play flute and was looking at a music catolag and came across a trombone with valves like a trumpet. What is this called? It looked weird. Do you press the valves and do postions with it? As you can tell i don`t really care about trombone or brass instrument because i am a woodwind player. Can someone please tell me what this is?

I would tell you, but you don`t care.

ZINGER!!!!


well done erik..



but i will explain.. its a trombone.... but it has valves. they gave it a whacky name. the "valve trombone." i believe it has greek origins.

Hehehe I thought someone would like that.

i`ve seen it too, i want to play one...but i would actually care about finding it, if you want to know what it is go to google and find it, since you don`t care we arn`t telling
