Tomasi Concerto for Trumpet

Hey Manny!

Its Brandon again.

Another Style question, because by word of mouth, i have heard that your are the style master.

Okay... So I got this piece today, and would really like to play it for Solo Ensemble... and I have found in reading this piece, that it is a

TROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Sounds cool... but is really hard,

So actually 3 Questions:

1) How do you go about learning a piece (do you have a method?), when you get a new one that you've never seen before

2) What kind of style tips should I know for this piece?

3) I have a fairly new (well brand new horn, and fairly new to me) C Trumpet. It is a Getzen 3071 Custom. I love the horn, but I havent quite acclimated to it... How do you acclimate to a new horn so you can switch more efficiently?
