Intonation and resistance of my Selmer Piccolo are very good. Maybe it's a different model. Concerning baroque pieces the sound is not as cutting as a smaller mensure fitted Scherzer or Burbank etc. It depends on the sound idea of the conductor. I think I wouldn't play the "music for royal fireworks" on it but "the trumpet shall sound" of Messias for example
amigo, intenta tocar un poco mas continuo, no kortes las notas, se que estas empezando, pero podrias ir corrigiendo los primeros errores, suerte

@MegaF10 Yes, right on, this comes from not good enough nor continuous air support, I should work on better air supply...

Selmer Piccolo is fantastic, I'm playing it, too. You can get a deep sound, if you want, almost like a large trumpet.

Yes, I agree, although intonation and resistance are trade-offs compared to Scherzer or Schilke piccs. But I definitely prefer the Selmer sound!
