Brass Fingerings & Slide Positions
A wall chart of the one valve pattern shared by trumpet, horn, euphonium and tuba, the trombone's seven slide positions, and what every brass part tells you before you play a note.
What's inside
- The seven valve combinations shared by every valved brass instrument, with semitones lowered by each
- Written-out fingerings for trumpet/cornet/flugel, and the trombone's seven slide positions in bass clef
- The horn as the exception — two instruments sharing one wrap of tubing and one set of valves
- Why players write fingerings into their part, and the right hand's role inside the bell
- A reading-a-brass-part table of clef and transposition by instrument, and four things every brass player should know
