What would be wrong with rotaries? I bet that Berlin Philharmoniker is using flat rotaries on their recordings of Tchaik 4 and it sounds terrific!

Alpensinphine on B flat? I guess that it is possible....the last time I brought excerpts from it to play then on B flat to my teacher he said that nobody was playing this on B flat (he is a swiss and uses a lto C trumpet for R. Strauss). When I brought it to Rod Franks (London Symphony Orchestra) he did not seem very surprised...I gues that he is using it for Alpensimphonie...but then he does not play C trumpet at all
