Trombone Fingering & Tuning

The most COMPLETE intonation resource for students, private music instructors, and band directors! Fingerings, alternate fingerings, and tuning suggestions are compiled from years of research from the best in the profession.

Trombone Fingering & Tuning Chart is an interactive, color-coded slide position chart for the full-range of trombone. Tap or scroll through notes on the staff to see its corresponding fingering/position as well as its inherent pitch tendency. In addition, each figure will display suggestions for alternative slide positions in order to play each note in equal tuning and/or adjust each note for just tuning. Black-color indicates regular fingerings; Green-color indicates suggested fingerings to add; and Red-color indicates suggested fingerings to delete.

The app also identifies the best tuning notes for trombone, and the information-button provides helpful tips on tuning the trombone in relation to dynamics, air speed and direction, and embouchure. A detailed Key Chart allows you to zoom in on particular fingerings and note names.
