NOTE; All tones produced by the air vibrating in sevenths are flat and must be corrected by making
the position for that tone about an inch shorter. This, of course, is impossible in 1st position on trombone
and in all fingerings on baritone. The baritone player must chose a different fi n g eri n g for the required
tone or force i t into tune with his lips. The latter is seldom satisfactory.

Legato Playing
In preceding lessons the slur mark - - ... hlis been used only to indicate lip slurs. t has however, a more
general meaning and when it appears over a group o f notes it signifies that these notes are to be played
as a musical unit or phrase and that the tone o f the instrument in passing from one note to another will be
as smooth as possible. The same meaning is expressed by the word legato written at the beginning o f a
melody or phrase.
To play legato on most wind instruments it is merely n e c e s s a r y to tongue the first note under the slur
and sustain the tone while passing from one note to the next without additional tongue attacks. The flow o f
air through the instrument is uninterrupted during the slur. f this procedure were followed for the slide
trombone, glissandos ("smears") would be produced between tones on the same harmonic (See Position
Chart. p a g e 2) To avoid these "smears" and acquire a legato style of trombone playing the following
rules should be observed.
1. Use a soft tongue attack. Instead of using the rather explosive "too;' attack with a light "doo" syllable.
2. Shift the slide quickly between notes and make the interruption in tone while the slide is being shift
ed as slight as possible. Recontinue the tone after the shift with a very light "doo" attack.
3. When two notes of different pitches a r e connected by a slur and can be played with the same slide
position, the lip slur should be used if the player can use it smoothly.
4. The lip slur should also be used when the slide shifts ju s t one position, in or out, and the tone skips
up o r down more than a half step (semitone).

5. Sometimes it is possible to lip slur a skip wben the slide moves two positions in or out provided that,
if the slide moves out, the change is to a higher tone, and if the slide moves in, the change is to a lower tone.

6. By being familiar with the different positions in which the same note may be played (See Chart, page 2)
the player can choose l e s s common positions for some of the notes in order that lip slurs may be introduced
to improve the legato playing.
