Hi all,

I'm Marcel from Schiedam, the Netherlands. I play the trombone in a band called Rijnmondband. Last September we played during the Netherlands Military Tattoo, together with the Portsmouth band. we actually played the march The Jolly Roger on the square outside the hall. It was a great experience for the band, playing together with the Royal Marines.

greetings from Holland

Marcel

Hi tbone3 - welcome!

In answer to your question, I recognise them all!

They certainly are all trombones to my practiced eye!!!

In fact - the person on the right (as you look at the picture) is holding the very rare glass trombone.

You don't see many of those!!!!!!
