You could just ask for a fingering chart from your director or ask for help from one of the trombone players at your school. I learned trombone to baritone fingerings in like 5 minutes, literately.

Trombone Position Chart :]
valves = position
open = 1
2 = 2
1 = 3
12 = 4
23 = 5
13 = 6
123 = 7

Does that help? By the way position are different for everyone. There is no exact 4 or exact 2 or anything. You move your slide in or out to get it better in tune. High Bflat is the only one you're supposed to use a tuner on and move your tuning slide, I think... It's either that or F.

Doesn't matter both are the same place, it depends on how your school tunes, really it should be F since it's a natural in concert, we are not suppose to have to transpose

I play Baritone and probably will learn trombone soon for jazz band next year, the trombone section lead (who is a junior) wants me to learn because they are going to lose a lot of the "jazzy" trombonists

And i have no school this week, but i sill have band for 2 days... and truthfully i wouldn't have it any other way

Next year we'll have maybe 2 jazz trombones compared to the 4 we have now. I love jazz band. We're playing a song called "The Movement" and "Get it On", they're awesome. :]

I love "Get it on" we played it in middle school jazz at the high school level and won the show with it, once it gets up to full tempo and it gets nice and clean it's great

I had three days of school this week. >_< my bro has the whole week off.

I'm thinking I want to learn alto sax so I can be in jazz band next year. I would do trombone (I really do like the trombone) but trombones are too expensive. (pshh...expensive...and I also play the tuba, now talk about expensive...xD) Also, even though if I didn't switch to tuba last year I would've done trombone, I wanted to play sax for a really long time (about four or five years...xD).

I love the tuba though, and I love my section, and I'm really glad I picked tuba and didn't listen to ben.

i love it. we haven't gotten it up to speed yet but we just got a couple weeks ago and we've been doing the movement more then it.

agmo82: i wish i could've gotten the whole week off. i was gonna switch to tenor last year but my director wouldn't let me. he was being retarded. said he liked me on trombone or some type of s**t like that. it was gay.

demonic swordsman- that's cool. where do you go to school?
