Hi I am a young Bahamian composer...This is just a link to a jazz chart i wrote...it features solo trombone...written solo.....youtube.com/watch?v=xxr7L1CHoz8
there is actually no big difference between a trombone and a bass trombone concerning the pitch range. only the sound is varying. a usual trombone can go almost that low.
You mean identical to a B flat contrabass tuba? I have read once both go to a very low A flat.
And what about a B flat contrabass trombone? I have seen one on the thein brass website and one on youtube, but do not know the range nor could find it.
The contrabass trombone is usually pitched in F (a fourth below the bass trombone) and is equipped with two valve attachments actuating D and B flat. It has a larger bell flare and longer expansion. It is played with a larger mouthpiece and speaks with greater authority in the low register, largely avoiding the need for pedal notes. It possesses a much darker and heavier timbre than the bass trombone. In professional ensembles, it is never replaced by a bass trombone but used in its own right.
thanks for the info. i played tenor trombone, second chair, during h.s. and college, then community band in lake charles, la. i used to hang around the band room at mcneese st. u. in lake charles, la. and i have never seen a contrabass t-bone. it must be an awesome instrument to reach new heights - or lows in this manner - in the trombone as an instrument. contrabass instruments can hit petals naturally while tenor or bass t-bones have to radically change their embresure to hit petals. wow.
I am thinking it is a bass. I play a single valve, and have hit most of the notes that I could easily pick out. It could be a contra, just to give more of an easy hit for it and a boost in volume, but any bass bone player should be able to do most of that, if not all.
I'm currently at a band camp, at UTSA, and we're going to do a masterclass performance, and since i'm the only bass trombonist, i'm playing all of the lowest parts.
If you have the time, when i upload the videos, may you comment on my playing, and perhaps give some tips? (I know its a bit hard without actually being able to see me, but anything would help)
This video is kick-ass. Trombone is the best instrument, you should really play it. I really don't get why there are so many trumpets trombones are more vauable. They can do so much more, I played trumpet for two years and switched to trombone and i am so much more happier.
bottom line trombone is best instrument anyone could ever play... i play it. truly a gift from the gods. lol. but really a cool instrument. i recomend it to everyone.
Wow thats really nice tone, must take a lot of skill to be able to cresendo with such big gaps without going out of tune and some of it sounds like saxaphones which truly impresses me.... Go trombones :)

my sister is in 7th grade and plays tha toumbone and showed me this, thought it was pretty impressive!!! oh and if yall haven talready look up "sexy back on troumbone" its pretty rad!!
yay the sight of so many skilled trombone players in one spot excites me! A teacher of mine was an amazing bass trombonist and used to always play this when I was just learning the trombone! I love it.
I started playing trombone coz of a song recorded by a small small amateur band, which I don't like at all, but the sound of trombone! It made me love it! Two years ago started playing it and I just can't stop...
