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.

∙ 14y agoWell 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.

∙ 15y agoThere 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.

∙ 14y agothe piccolo trombone does not exist. if you are referring to the soprano trombone, the positions are basically the same, however depending on the horn, many will be needed to be brought in slightly as you descend. of course, as with any trombone, the positions from horn to horn will vary.

∙ 14y agothat would be c,d,e,f,g,a,b,c. which in the middle register is 6/T1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 4, 3. the upper register is 3, 1, 2, 1, sharp2, 2, sharp2, 3

∙ 13y agoThe slide positions are the same as on a tenor trombone -- first through seventh.
The difference is mainly the distance between slide positions since the overall horn is shorter.
