Trombone or trumpet?
My sixth grade son has to choose between the trombone and the trumpet for the middle school band. Mr. C. and I are band-impaired and can't help him much...we know only that the trumpet plays the melody and the trombone generally doesn't.
He did great when they tested him for both instruments--about blew us all out of the building when they had him blow into both horns--but now he can't decide! Can any of you music and band people help with advice? Does either have any strong advantages or disadvantages?
