![]() ![]() It`s alright, but the slide became crap really fast. I bought the Jupiter just because i thought it was cool. ![]() If you bought a Thein or Miraphone soprano and spent that kind of money on it, you`d know what you were doing with it before you ever shelled out that money. BUT i`m assuming you bought a Jupiter soprano for like 300 bucks. The slide positions will all be relatively the same as a tenor trombone in relation to the bell. A soprano trombone has a moving handslide and stationary bell. Most slide trumpets had a 4 note capacity to them. When I see the A above the staff, I simply play A440 in second position. I know that the fundamental is Eb, but the tenor’s fundamental is Bb and we still read C music. Slide trumpets were medieval instruments in which the bell moved back and forth, not the handslide. First, I treat the tenor as a C instrument. And waht he is talking about IS NOT A SLIDE TRUMPET. 3rd space on tenor clef reads as a B on tenor, but you move them up spaces and lines like you would treble. 3rd space on treble is a trumpet C which transposes to a trombone Bb. (and also add 2 flats to whatever the key signature is to make it bass)It`s also just like reading tenor clef. To convert treble into what you would see for bass clef, move any note on a space up 2 spaces, or if on a line move it up 2 lines and it will look like it should for bass clef. Approximate F trombone slide locations below are in relation to the Bb Trombone positions - 2 1/4 is slightly below the normal 2nd position, 3 1/2 is halfway between the 3rd and 4th, etc. Soprano trombone can either transpose a trombone part up an octave, or you can read it treble from a trumpet. The only thing that really uses soprano clef is a Viola. Ummmm the soprano clef has nothing to do with the instrument being called soprano. ![]()
