[Trombone-l] Bass Trombone Intonation Chart (F/Gb/D)

Take a line from "Forever Plaid"...

"There's nothing like being inside a good, tight chord"...

Listen...  So you may need to flat or sharp YOUR position, the goal is
that "good, tight chord"...

Intonation is even more complicated than getting into the right slide
position.  Intonation changes from attack to sustain.  More than
anything else, that change is why synthesized trombone sounds (as
opposed to sampled trombone notes) sound synthesized.  (Another biggie
is having every note sound identical.)

Surely the best way to keep intonation correct is to listen to what
you're playing and to the other players.  No matter what you think of
your intonation, being out of tune compated with the rest of the group
is surely a worse offense.  And the only way to get that right is to
listen.
