As long as the music is notated in the pitch it shold sound, just replace
"tenor" by "bass". However, my guess is that your real question is about
transposing instruments, where the notation tells what to play, not what
it should sound like. In that case, read the section on "Transpose" in the
manual for some examples.

Hi,

I specify my peace of music as a trombone part

staffTrombone = {
   \key c \major
   \clef tenor
   \relative c {
       \time 3/4
       c c c
       ...
   } }
This trombone part should be transposed to bass clef, but I don't know how to do this and would like to let lilypond do the work. ;-)

Sorry, I don't understand the question. As you say yourself, you just specify the
clef using
\clef tenor
or
\clef bass
or whatever clef you want. You will get exactly the same pitches, printed
according to the clef.

On the other hand, of you want to transpose a part by an octave, for example,
you can use
\transpose c c' {c d e f g ...}
