It is extremely popular among music instructors, schools, and our eBay customers.
In what universe?
Take two valved trombones and two trombone players. You want to hear them play the same solo. One asks for a treble part. One asks for a bass clef part. Let's say you can barely read music but you know that All Cars Eat Gas and Every Good Boy Does Fine. But you also can't hear the difference in an E-flat and an E natural, even when the two trombone players are playing them sustained (in concert pitch). They play the solo. You don't look at the music. So you ask them, "What was your last note?"TubaTinker wrote:I'm wondering why these morons are calling their valve trombone a 'C' instrument. I guess they don't understand the bass/treble clef thing very well!
