The trombone is a brass instrument that produces sound when a player's vibrating lips in the mouthpiece cause air inside the instrument to vibrate, and it uses a unique telescoping slide to change the pitch instead of the valves found on most other brass instruments. It matters as a distinctive member of the brass family, with its slide mechanism making it capable of producing a wide range of pitches and a characteristic sound central to many musical genres from classical to jazz.

Die Posaune ist ein tiefes Blechblasinstrument, das wegen seines weitgehend zylindrischen Rohres (enge Mensur) zu den Trompeteninstrumenten zählt. Der Ton wird mittels Anregung der natürlichen Resonanzen der Luftsäule im Instrument durch Lippenschwingungen (siehe Polsterpfeife) des Bläsers an einem Kesselmundstück erzeugt.
