I couldn't disagree more!  Part of the attraction of playing the trombone is that you can play in a huge range of types of ensemble.  To do that you need to know bass clef, tenor, alto, and b-flat transposing treble clef.  Someone learning the instrument obviously needs to stick to one - the choice will be based on the ensemble they want to play in.  The problem happens if someone brought up in banding only knows treble clef and then goes to university, discovers there's a whole world of music out there, but struggles to read the music.

You're missing out on a lot as a trombonist if you can only read treble clef.

Just my thoughts
