Do you guys play the Hayden on a Bb trumpet or an Eb trumpet?

I asked Edward Tarr about playing the trills and he looked at me like I had attended the wrong conference. I realized then why all the orchestral competitors were carrying Eb trumpets. I meekly said something like, "I guess I should play it on an Eb trumpet?" He said nothing but nodded his head, yes. That was the first tid bit of information I learned at my first ITG conference.

So what do you'all do? Carol Dawn-Reinhart told me she plays everything on a Bb. She uses false fingering for the trills. She is an incredible player.
