I'm wondering if there are any trombone players/experts out here.  My
question is, how would a trombonist generally interpret a grace note with a
slur onto another note about a 2nd lower (in a 20th century score)?:


a.  Would they soft-tongue the second note?

b.  Would they just tongue the first note as with any other brass or wind
player?  If this is the case, would it generally sound like a very quick and
short glissando, or is there enough control even at grace note speed to make
it sound like two distinct notes?

c.  Is it just not usual or practical for grace notes to be found in 20th
cent. trombone parts?

Cheers,

C.
