jamesfrmphilly is an unknown quantity at this point
what's a trumpet supposed to sound like?

after listening to some recent recordings i wonder if the trumpet has become the new flugel horn?
how dark and round and thick can you go and still claim to be a trumpet?
if all the trumpet players want to sound like cornets, why are they playing trumpets?
what is the difference between the various instruments if not the sound?
if your trumpet sounds like a flugel and your cornet sounds like a trumpet
what's going on here?
