Trumpet "in Bb" means that where the score has a C, a Bb will sound. Similarly Horn "in F" will sound F for a written C. In your case, as the notes are entered not in concert pitch, you should use the LilyPond command \transposition to specify the note that will sound when c' (middle C) is pl

Trombone player here. You and I play instruments that are in concert pitch. This means that when you & I look at a C printed on the page, and move our fingers/slide/lips to play it, a C comes out of our horns. A part for a “Trumpet in B-flat” is written differently.

Ken, Using Trumpet in b-flat ... When the trumpet player looks at their part written in C-major and they play the note middle-c, c', what sounds is the note b-flat, one step lower. Thus all the orchestra/wind ensemble parts that play Concert C (your tuba or trombone) must play a b-flat to pla

I forgot to comment directly on this. I often find it necessary to create a temporary extra "dummy" voice to provide the continuity required for slurs, ties, and beams. Sometimes the extra notes get merged, but often one or other of them needs to be hidden if merging cannot be contrived. Pau

The best/easiest solution may depend on the surrounding context. But the immediate thing that comes to mind for your limited example is: \score { \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "up" {\clef G c''8[ \change Staff = "low" c8]} \new Staff = "low" {\clef F r8 \change Staff = "up" r8}
