And how many non-trumpeters have heard of Alexander Arutiunian?

Manny, maybe you could get your orchestra to play it, and report for us what you think? Does your orchestra take requests from the players at all? Of course you'd be dropping your principal horn player in it a bit if he was asked to perform the solo!
