Well,

The first thread I posted went over so well I thought I'd post a few other pieces we did.

Hark the Hearld Angels Sing is the first clip. I really love to play melodic tunes and I think that this piece shows it. Me and Mr. McMillan really had it in sync here I think.

The next clip shows my more imperfect side. Here I am blowing my entrance for about 8 bars until I finally get in sync with Mr. McMillan and the rest of the ensemble. The song is Let Us Celebrate; a surprisingly up tempo song for a Catholic Church. It sounded good; I think once I got on the same page with everyone.

[/quote]

Again; thanks everyone for all the comments and for helping me develope into the Trumpet player that I've always wanted to be.

I shudder to think "what might have been" had TM existed when I was in School in the late 70's and Early 80's.

Hark The Herald Angels Sing was on Bb and Let Us Celebrate I played on my C and Mr. McMillan played his Bb. The Key signature was B Major (Yuck) so I played it on C.

All the best,
John
