Ouch!!!

Just to point out, for those who don't play trombone, you will never (in 
my experience at least, I'm sure people will find counter examples) find 
trombone music with those positions in the treble clef.

Like (I think) all brass instruments, the trombone in treble clef is a 
transposing instrument, and position 1 is a written C, not D.

In this example you need to swap the treble clef for a tenor clef ...

And then redo it for treble clef - your bass clef bottom Bb is written 
as treble clef middle C.
