The Trombone Maze

Find your way through the Trombone Maze!

A trombone is a powerful brass instrument consisting of a tube in three parts, bent twice upon itself and ending in a bell. The middle part slides in and out of the outer parts, so that by changing the length of the instrument (while blowing air through it) it makes different sounds.

It is the only member of the family of wind instruments whose scale is complete without the aid of keys or pistons, and which can slide from note to note as smoothly as the human voice or a violin.
