    One has only valves to change the resonant frequency, the other has a sliding thing to change the resonant frequency.

    The resonant frequency is what produces notes (A, above middle C = 440Hz?)

    You blow down one end and noise comes out the other.

    Would you like me to clarify anything?

    Re: What is Trumpet/Trombone and their technicalities

    What an odd question!?!
    A trumpet is one of the smallest (if not THE smallest) of the brass instruments. THe trombone is the long thin one with the extendable end...OOOo matron!

    I believe a Pflugelhorn (sic?) may be smaller than a coronet.
