2. If I have a trumpet part written in E and I use a B-flat trumpet I know that I transpose up a tritone (Augmented 4th) or 6 half steps right. What do you do if it is a C trumpet is it up a major third (3 half steps up)? | A major third is three WHOLE steps. I think bass clef with 4 sharps.
C=E
D=F#
E=G#
F=A
You get the picture.
