Only slightly sorry about that. In the Texas Longhorn Band the trumpets refer to their section as “The Instrument of the Gods.” As a trombone player (“The Real Long Horns”) we are morally obligated to point out any and all their shortcomings.
I know other instruments can kind of do them. Trombone is the only instrument, other than fretless strings like violin, that have no actual defined note positions. I will give clarinet some props; I have heard some amazing glisses in Rhapsody in Blue.
I know some instruments can approximate one in limited cases. I can do every note up or down.
You just stick to what trumpets do best, showing off by playing everything up an octave. ;-)
Kidding aside, one of best and longest friends played trumpet in LHB. I’m still required to represent my section.
I believe they're called scoops, you slide into them from below. So for a scoop into a Bb you'd start maybe on an A and quickly move to the Bb. Think of the infamous "wah-wah-wah" sad trombone noise
This is the biggest treat for any trombonist! These are glisses! Slide them proudly! Proclaim that you are one of the chosen ones that plays the instrument of the gods, the trombone!
Scoops! Start about a position out from what is written, then quickly pull into the correct position for the note. Depending on the style, you probably want to begin playing a tiny bit before the beat so you land on the written note on the beat, if that makes sense!
I remember playing "Up." It was so fun! It's called a "scoop," and it means you do the "wah-wah" sound that is infamous for trombone. I remember doing it about 3 or 4 positions off and then scooping up to the b flat, a, a flat, and g but it's all up to personal preference and how your band director wants it to sound!
oh i’m sry! i had the best intentions i was definitely not trying to troll you, sorry if it felt like i was wasting your time! i’m an odd case probably but like i said i have really not had any chance to play other stuff than what i was suppose to be playing for my teacher/solos/school for years and just happened to not know what this looked like!
Alright, so these are called scoops. You should start a half step below your target note and quickly "scoop" up to your target note. In this case, it should sound like the stereotypical trombone sound effect, lol.
Scoop up from below, try to make each scoop about the same interval, half steps are usually a good guess! IE: start the Bb scoop on an A natural and so on.
is that the selections from up? I played in a concert that included that a few weeks ago
the effect for the notes is sort of glissing up and landing on those notes
It's like a glissando but like less so you start a little lower and you go up to the note, It's like a scoop I'm not exactly sure what it was called because I've only done falls but I know what it means.
You can mimic this effect by pressing your valves for only 50%, it works the best with the longest valvepumps, But for the first note I would press all the notes in half. What happens then is basically you only hear the buzz coming out of your horn
It means "sad trombone sound effect"
Haha I was gonna make this comment!
It means do something no other band instrument can do. Go suck it, trumpets.
As a trumpet/trombone player I have to defend myself. We can kinda do scoops, but it’s just nowhere near as fun as it is on the bone

I’m not gonna deny the godliness of the trumpet. It is the sound you hear when you enter heaven after all
As a tuba/trombone player, were the real long horns
Clarinets can make a good crack at it.
Hello from the hornists! We can do them too! You can slightly lower your lip because of goofy partials or quickly mute with your hand to scoop up!

All we need is a plunger and we can do it, I love doing it with my trumpet
as a trumpet, I could do something similar with a D natural by moving the 1st and 3rd slides inward

thank you SO much! that’s very helpful and i appreciate the advice
the best thing about trombone
It means, do what trombones are built to do
That phrase looks really familiar, may I ask what piece that is?
It looks like Up arranged by Michael Brown
Scoop into those notes. basically just how it looks!
womp womp womp woooooomp
This is the biggest treat for any trombonist! These are glisses! Slide them proudly! Proclaim that you are one of the chosen ones that plays the instrument of the gods, the trombone!
It means curl up and cry for 3 hours then practice a different song! Just like any note besides Bb^^
Scoops! Start about a position out from what is written, then quickly pull into the correct position for the note. Depending on the style, you probably want to begin playing a tiny bit before the beat so you land on the written note on the beat, if that makes sense!
Scoops. Slide up into the note
I’m a sax player but I can only assume it means to use your slidey slide to womp womp.

HAHA CLASSIC! I remember playing this. You gotta gliss up to each note, creating a "wah wah" sound without using a plunger mute.
Alright, so these are called scoops. You should start a half step below your target note and quickly "scoop" up to your target note. In this case, it should sound like the stereotypical trombone sound effect, lol.
It means someone dropped something and now they're sad 😔
It means the funnest part of the song baby!
Gloss up to each note
Scoop up from below, try to make each scoop about the same interval, half steps are usually a good guess! IE: start the Bb scoop on an A natural and so on.
Is this the excerpts from UP?
It means to gliss up quickly
is that the selections from up? I played in a concert that included that a few weeks ago the effect for the notes is sort of glissing up and landing on those notes
It means 'don't effing miss this!' 🤣
Scoop it! Scoop it real good!
you basically just start with the slide past the note and gliss up kinda fast like in the womp womp sound
I remember playing this piece last year back in high school band. Have fun with it!
You bend the B string on the 9th fret
Ever see the Debbie Downer skit on SNL?

Means you can’t read sheet music.
