Trombone:
Unlike many of the other recognizable brass instruments, the trombone does not use keys to change pitch. Trombones use a long slide, moved up and down, to produce different notes and pitches. A counterweight on the back of the instrument keeps it balanced while the player moves the slide through different positions to play the correct notes. While there are valve trombones, they are uncommon and not recommended for students.

In British brass bands, it is typically treated as a treble-clef instrument, while in American band music, parts may be written in either treble or bass clef.

It uses a wide-rimmed cup mouthpiece similar to trombone, and can be considered either a transposing or non-transposing instrument. A baritone can also play music written for a trombone due to similar pitches and are one octave below the trumpet.

French Horn (Single):
The French Horn is a brass instrument made of more than 20 feet of tubing! Pitch is controlled through the adjustment of lip tension in the mouthpiece and the operation of three lever operated rotary valves by the left hand, which route the air into extra tubing. The backward-facing orientation of the bell creates a subdued sound in concert situations, in contrast to the more piercing quality of the trumpet.
