| I think that the issue is not vented holes or not. In fact the issue is that the traditional techniques to construct Baroque trumpet do not go well with the modern. EG. You can play a Vented Nat trumpet and for sure you won't be able to lip the F and A without the hole. That is because they are using normal tubes (seamed). In baroque trumpets the tubes have little imperfections that allow to bend the notes.
So for me the question is not vented or not, but modern tubes or traditional hand made tubes.
