Musical Role
Trumpets are the primary melody carriers for the brass section. Their role is to provide fanfare, bright rhythmic stabs, and powerful lead lines. They are the soprano voice of the brass, responsible for the most recognizable and heroic moments in a piece.
The Bold Fanfare
The trumpet player is the ultimate "main character." In their minds, every note they play is the right one, and they’ll play it boldly to prove it. They are the fanfare of the group, showing off high notes with pride, at least until their endurance is tested and they have to take a strategic rest.
