The above is true for a beginner Trombone. If a trombone has an F attachment (also known as a "trigger trombone") There are technically only 6 positions because the trigger can act as sixth and seventh. (1st position with trigger becomes sixth, 2nd position with trigger becomes seventh) though it is best to use sixth position while playing the F in the low register of the instrument.
Well there is mainly seven slide positions. But these slide positions can have many notes.
For example, you have a basic Bflat in first position on a tenor trombone. This will be the second line on a bass clef. An octave above that is a Bflat on the space above the last line of the bass clef, and on the line above that is Middle C. If you go up another line, this is technically in the treble clef on the first line, an E. The slide positions have nothing to do with the clef other than changing the note.
There are seven; called first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh, respectively. First is with the slide closed, second is about an inch out from that, third it about an inch away from the bell, fourth is lined up with the bell, and fifth through sixth are more or less by ear training. Of course, different people play differently and therefore may use slightly different positionings, but that's the basics of it.
Slide positions are not lettered, but numbered, one through seven.
Trombones are played by moving a slide, while other brass instruments use valves to change notes.
The word is CLEF. Trombone music is typically written in bass clef. However, music can be found written in tenor and alto clef. Occassionally, treble clef is used.In many older, classical pieces there were three parts written: alto, tenor, and bass. The alto trombone played in alto clef, tenor in tenor clef, and bass in bass clef. Most modern music is written in bass clef.
Yes.
Trombones don't have fingerings because they don't have valves. Instead, they have slide positions. The positions for the B major scale, starting on a 2nd line B and ascending are 7, 5, 3, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4.

Trombones are played by moving a slide, while other brass instruments use valves to change notes.
a slide is pulled inwards and outwards, changing the length of the horn, thus changing the note. Different positions are used for the different notes

The slide positions for E is 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7. :)
No. The alto trombone, also known as the slide trumpet, plays in the key of B flat, while all other trombones are concert pitch
1-7 (basic)
trombones have a slide but the rest of the brass are very similar but with likely keys or valves
There are 7 slide positions on a trombone. There are, however, modifications to those 7 positions to create accidentals and when playing a slide.
