If the trombonists use the bass clef, but the sounds an octave higher, this is how you write that:

staffTrombone = {
   \key c \major
   \clef bass
   \transposition c''
   \transpose c c, { \relative c' {
       c d es f
   } }
}

\book {
   \score {
       \staffTrombone
       \layout  {  indent = 0\mm }
       \midi {  }
   }
}

Try compiling the example before making any comments.
I did, but it does not show me anything new as I tried to convert a peace of music from "tenor clef" -> "bass clef". Your example already IS in bass clef...

I think it's much more easier now to tranpose the notes in my head and afterwards write them directly as a staff in bass clef, as Mats Brengtsson proposed. My Idea was to first write the notes in tenor clef so that I can check if I did everything wright on an outprint. Afterwars I wanted to transpose everything with one command into a bass clef staff with appropriate transposed notes in the bass clef staff, but that doesn't seem to work this way.

So I think is gonna be better to write the notes directly to an bass clef.


Thanks a lot for your help guys!
