Wow, popular topic today! Anyway, I want to get started on offering a wedding trumpet "service" to the local area. I'd like to eventually offer piccolo trumpet along with Bb, but for now I want to try to get a new picc paid for by playing the Bb. Can you guys point me towards a resource for getting set up for doing this? I don't need anyone to list a bunch of pieces to do, but maybe a place where I might find all of this on my own. Mostly, I'm looking for general info from experienced wedding trumpeters on how to get started and so on and so forth.

Thanks!

From Jan Magne Førde, member of Brazz Brothers,
here is a couple of norwegian tunes I have used for weddings.

Used at our princesse's wedding in 2002

Especially written for the norwegian "main church" NidarosDOMEN

The tunes are available from his website: Jan Magne Førde
and are also arranged for organ/trumpet/flugel
