Hakan Hadenberg's version of the Haydn Trumpet concerto I like very much, or was it even Marsarlis who did it? I can't remember, such a looong time ago since I last lsitend to it!
LOL at the how high thing. That's probably what defines trumpet players as the egos of the music world, hehe. All about the nice sound people
So, what kind of trumpets do you(se) play? As in brand... admittedly (albeit shamfeully and being a traitor to Trumpetkind!) I know very little about what is good etc, except for the fact that when I meet other people and they play and the sound is just wooooaaah. I'm currently still on my first trumpet from primary school, a King 500 I think... <--- the brand thing also seems to be the big thing to talk about haha.

Hello.
lol im on my third trumpet, started on a cheapo Bach in primary school then got a Yamaha Standard model now i've finally progressed the a Bach Strad 37 ML Silver Plated, the usual. Whats your musical background; Brass Bands, Concert Bands, Ochestras?
Ahhh, Bach Strad ~~
Me = originally a piano player from age 5 to 13, started trumpet at 9 to now. Usually just bodgy school ensembles is me, unfortunately. I've no will, motivation or confidence to form a band... though PAU ensembles are fun
What would be fun would be to form a herald/fanfare group, and get those long-belled herald trumpets. They're so cool!

my higher register is crazy cos it changes all the time. Most days i can play a high F (if i sit there for an hour doing stamp exercises!!) but it aint consistent so it doesnt count... so i'd say high Eb usually. But anything above D sounds airy and yucky so i need ta work on it! Dont you love it when u get those days when you can play like really really high without even tryin?? One day i was just doing some warm ups and i felt like playing high so i did and i could play like double A's and Bb's!!! yaaaaaaay!! But that was just for one day .... i hate those people who can play that high all the time.... sometimes even higher!!! How do they do it seriously!!! O well my higher register is improving heaps cos at the beggining of this year i was having trouble playing high C's! that was baaaad cos it was silly and my teacher got angry at me! wooops!
