Trumpet

Don’t eat or drink anything with a lot of sugar, since it’ll make valves and slides to stick, corrode water key holes, and the list goes on.

Have instrument case under chair, next to chair, or in a cubby/locker.

Oil all three valves, only taking each out when you’re doing that one. When twisting valves back in, make sure they’re going into the correct hole, and that they are facing the correct way using the small numbers on the upper part of the valve.

Trombone

Proper instrument assembly

While playing:

Avoid taking both hands off your trombone, while sitting in your lap.

After Playing:

Avoid using your foot/shoe to open the water key. Although tempting,

this will likely bend or break the water key over time, resulting in a needed repair.

Describe in detail one process for maintaining your instrument:

Remove the inner slide from the slide jacket, put the slide jacket aside. Use clean paper towel, wipe both sides of the inner slide thoroughly. Use a finger tip worth of trombone slide cream on each
side of the inner slide.
