Re: baroque trumpet newbie... any tips?

Actually the Db and Cb pipes that some manufacturers sell are the "old pitch" I am with you and want to learn that too when I can get an instrument. Don't forget Tarr wrote a series of books (3) on playing the natural trumpet. Try to play it without using the vent holes for a real challenge.
