Awesome observation, and appropriate for almost every piece! Most really good conductors will allow the the trumpets at least one "Bugler's Holiday" moment per concert, and in the 3rd Suite, that usually happens in the fast part of the 1st movement-- "tu-ah tu-ah tu-ah TEE!" Always good for a violist jump!
