From one trumpeter to another, bravo. Wonderful job! I'm planning on doing this for my spring recital. Where did you get the music?

@brassgirl1 I actually just googled "A Simple Song" from Bernstein's Mass, and I think I just ordered it from Amazon or something. It's not a special trumpet arrangement or anything. I'm actually just reading off of the vocal part :)

thanks for the comment!

Bravo bravo.

Beautiful sound. Beautiful control. Beautiful intonation. And quite free and effortless sounding. You have a very bright future. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for posting this!

Beautiful job! We're doing the brand new Wind Ensemble arrangement this weekend, and this tune features solo flugelhorn. You gave me some nice phrasing ideas.
