yes. think of it as
Trumpet plays treble cleff. (high pitch instruments and sounds)
Trombone plays bass cleff (lower notes and sounds)
The difference between the cleffs is 3 half steps (I believe)
Typically bass cleff notes are lower but not always. It depends if the two are the same part.
If you are asking about the treble clef baritone vs. bass clef baritone issue in bands, there's a catch: treble clef baritone players read notes written in the treble clef but the sound they make is actually a major 9th (octave + 1 whole step) lower. (E.g. if a treble-clef baritone player sees a middle C on the treble clef, the note that is actually played is a B-flat on the 2nd line from the bottom of the bass clef.) So actually, a bass-clef baritone part and a treble-clef baritone part from the same piece of music are probably identical in sound. They're just written differently.
The reason: trumpet players, who usually play in a B-flat transposition (sounds a step lower, their written C comes out B-flat), can switch over to baritone more easily if they continue to read the same clef and finger the notes the same way. (Same thing is true of the saxophones, who all read basically the same range of the treble clef, finger more or less the same, but come out with sounds in very different registers.) It's pretty common, at least in U.S. schools, for baritone players to have started out as trumpet players, and this practice facilitates the switch.
Most of the low brass world, though, uses untransposed bass clef--what you see is what you hear. Baritone players are well advised to learn bass clef as soon as possible. Still, they need to understand how the transposed treble-clef parts work--it's part of the environment.

How do you transpose trombone notes to Baritone saxophone?
Switch from bass to treble clef and add three sharps/subtract three flats.
What is the clef used fore notes in the lower pitch ranges?
Treble
What instrument plays bass clef?
GuitarBassPianoKeyboardTromboneTubaBaritone/EuphoniumBassoonBass ClarinetBari SaxophoneThis clef is used for the cello, double bass, bass guitar, bassoon, contrabassoon, trombone, euphonium and tuba; for the lower part of keyboard instruments like the piano, organ, and harpsichord (of which the upper part is usually written in treble clef); and for the lowest notes of the horn(English, French, etc.); and the baritone and bass voices.
Lower sounding instruments read their notes in the?
Bass Clef Mostly. Some however, still use the treble clef.NOTE: The viola uses the viola clef and the piano/keyboard uses both treble and bass.
How many clefs are there?
Contrary to what most people believe (3 clefs: Bass, Treble, Alto), there are actually 7 that I know of. Yes, some are Treble, Bass, and Alto. But, there are four more: Soprano, Mezzo Soprano, Baritone, and Tenor. I believe Tenors usually use Baritone Clef though.

Does Michael Jackson use bass clef or treble clef?
His vocals would certainly be using treble clef. Most singer's vocals remain in treble cleff range (with the exception of very deep baritone singers). The bass lines would be in bass clef because they are much lower notes (like the catchy part of Billie Jean, for just one example).

Is A bass clef and a treble clef the same?
Clefs do not have 'sounds'. They are merely tools to indicate where on the musical stave notes are to be placed. However, the treble clef 'places' higher notes than the bass clef. If a clef is placed in the middle of the staff, then the notes that follow that clef are of that clef. For example, if the bass clef is placed on the treble staff, the notes that follow it are to be interpreted as "bass clef" notes and played using lower notes on the piano. The opposite is true if the treble clef is placed on the bass staff.
The two clefs on which notes are written are?
The upper is called the "treble" clef; the lower is the "bass" clef.

What instrument plays treble clef?
The treble clef consists of notes above the bass clef, the answer has to be anything that generally plays higher notes than cellos, double basses, bass guitars, etc. That leaves you with things that can play notes in both the bass and treble clefs without much difficulty: french horns, pianos, bass trombones, bass clarinets, baritone and tenor saxes, violas, cellos, bass guitars. I suppose there are a few which have music written almost entirely in the treble clef: penny whistles, soprano saxes, descant recorders, Bach trumpets.
What clef does the baritone use?
If by the baritone you mean the euphonium in the military and wind bands the part is non-transposing and written in the bass clef. In brass bands it is treated as a transposing instrument (Euphonium in B-flat) the part is written in the treble cleff sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written. If you are refering to the tenor saxhorn or Baritone (B-flat Baritone) as it is called as used in brass bands then it is always a transposing instrument written in the treble clef sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written. Then there is the baritone sax which is written in the treble clef (Baritone Sax in e-flat) which sounds 1 octave+ a sixth lower than written
Does the bari sax play in the bass clef?
bass clef EDIT: The person who said bass cleft is only 50% right... Baritone Horn music is also written in Treble Clef and it is transposed to Bb. So for example.. if you played the trumpet, you cane easily switch to baritone horn and read music off of Treble Clef.. the fingerings would be the SAME, the note would ust be an octace lower. If the music were in Bass Clef, you'd have to transpose half a step high because Baritone Horns are in Concert key (C).
