The lowest and actual note a Trumpet can play is a low F# beneath the G under the stage

eg. working downwards:

C B A G F#

However some trumpeters can play notes much lower than this, but these are not real notes.

The lowest written note in the range of a Bb trumpet is a low Gb. The frequency of this pitch is 184.997Hz.

Of course, the true "lowest" note is limited only be the skill of the player.

Most trombones are tuned to B flat. That means that the lowest note that can be played in 1st position is B flat. The lowest note you can play in tune is F in 6th position. In 7th position in the pedal (lowest) range you could play a very sharp E. Some trombones have an F trigger which lowers the lowest 1st position note, in tune note and lowest note to F, C and a very sharp B respectively. A few trombones have a G flat trigger in addition to the F which puts the lowest 1st position note, in tune note and lowest note at D flat, A flat and a very very sharp G.

Using common fingering, the note F# is the lowest note played on trumpet. However, using alternate fingerings the note F can be reached.

The lowest note that a trumpet is designed to play is the F# below the staff (valves 123). However, good trumpet players can play notes lower than that, though the trumpet is not designed to.
