The Trombone The trombone is certainly the most recognizable wind instrument‚ being the only one with a true slide section. The trombone has been in existence for centuries under various forms and names‚ but has remained relatively unchanged for a majority of that time.

In the book The Metamorphosis of Ovid‚ the story of Phoebus and Phaethon particularly stood out to me.

“Happy are those who dare courageously to defend what they love” quote from Ovid. For example‚ I was a shy and quiet kid in the past.

The elf-queen danced often with her merry company in many green meadows. This long ago was the belief‚ as I find in books.
