Should be either notated a 4th higher or, if in concert pitch a 7th higher. The slurs are not original. No valves is the way I like to hear it, and play it. There are 3 notes that are challenging on the picc...

I don't understand. Concert pitch is one step below Bb trumpet notation. Wouldn't that, then, be a third higher?

Yes, I think you're right. The register it's written in allows a mortal to play it. Its usually played on a picc which is an unruly instrument when compared to a C or Bb trumpet.

Slur two, tongue two is not Baroque. Slur two slur two comes closer.

Sheltering here at home - watching our 5 year old and 8 year old grandchildren. Reading the posted discord resulting from a simple invitation to have some fun reminds me of the constant discord between my grandchildren.

You're taking the fun out of this offering. Heck I wish the font was bigger and it came with a six naked super models but it's still a lot of fun to play.

I personally enjoy the natural trumpet selections on this piece. Something just fits better

I could play it in the original with my Harrelson and one lip tied behind my back!

You are a better man than I. I was exhausted after four.

The original for natural trumpet in F was notated - as most baroque music in "C". That is a 4th higher than G. At least, that is what I meant...

@J-Jericho He is the real thing and a great teacher! I haven't been to Basel where he teaches this year due to issues with my teeth. With luck, late summer or early fall will be my next lesson.

@Vulgano-Brother Actually the articulation is not usually "slurred" at all. Te-re, te-re, te-re.

That's been my experience with Bach.

Perhaps Vulgano Brother will take it Bach... Yes?

I hope all goes extremely well with you.
