The orchestra is not together rhythmically and the intonation is suspect. I personally would not use a C trumpet for this concerto. I would use Piccolo trumpet in A or a Piccolo trumpet in G with 4 valves. I find the piccolo trumpet sounds better for this work but that's just my opinion.

yeah actually we wanted to use piccolos too, but we couldn't borrow 2 of them, so we had no choice but to make do using C trumpets, and yes it was tough but it was a good experience! i suggest all trumpeters try this or something similar with a good friend (:

In a certain sense, you are correct; but from another perspective you are wrong.

When a decent trumpet player is playing notes above the treble clef, the partials become so close together you can use a whole assortment of fingering combinations and end up playing the same phrase/thing/whatever the same way.

EXAMPLE, using my ear I can play a G major (F major concert) scale starting on the G just above the treble clef up to the super G using the fingering combination of 1-3. I just lip it.

@Triviumheadica Hi. If you read my earlier comments, I actually performed this great work on Bb trumpet.  Yes I agree the sound of a Bb trumpet is fantastic. However I prefer to use a rotary piccolo trumpet in A. It has a beautiful sound not as edgy as a standard piccolo trumpet.

@piccolomaster I personally find that a Bb trumpet has the best sound, so long as the player doesn't strain. I feel that it gives the sound more depth, but again, this is just mainly opinion

crisp vibrant thrilling playing the trumpets float up out of everything ,one or two duff notes dont matter when music played with MEANING

@piccolomaster I would also use a Piccolo in G, but Piccolo in A is to difficult I think.

[hinkamperj]

is the trumpet on the right pointing his trumpet straight to the ground or what?
