[Trombone-l] ONE MORE #@$&# CLEF

[Brian]

What's worse is when neither the librarian nor the players notice when the
parts are passed out and half the sections gets the Bb part and the other
half gets the standard part.

I'll just wait a minute while the tingle clears out of your spine from the
thought of that sound.

I have lately seen one more clef which wasn't explained by any of the
foregoing posts - and the reason being (probably) that there is no
explanation.

                    WORLD MUSIC with Trombone parts in B FLAT BASS CLEF

The clef mark is the standard F clef symbol for bass clef but the key is
transposed ala trumpet B flat treble. These parts are included in some
intermediate and high school band arrangements. I can think of no logical
reason for this, but then I am not a high school band teacher.
