Syntagma 06 VIII half.png
The trombone is a deep brass instrument , which is one of the trumpet instruments because of its largely cylindrical bore (narrow scale ) . The sound is created by stimulating the natural resonance of the instrument by vibrating the blower's lips . There is little data on the origin of the trombones - seen here alongside other wind instruments on a picture from the Syntagma musicum by Michael Praetorius . The oldest evidence of the existence of the instrument is an English document from 1495 and a painting by Matteo di Giovanni, who died in 1495. Along with the violin, the trombone is one of the oldest orchestral instruments that can be played fully chromatically. Until around 1700, the trombone was often used as a wind instrument that could be precisely voiced in an ensemble with singers and strings, but also independently.
