I was holding off on this as there are much more experienced people on the board than I, but here is what I think.

To play the genre well, you have to be a well rounded player. You have to be very comfortable with all styles equally, from sounding like you play in a pop horn section to an orchestral sound.

You need to be able to play the entire range of the instrument, from low F# to high G with a good sound, and have all types of articulations at your disposal. I guess the difficulties you will encounter are being prepared to play anything!
