What's your favorite orchestra excerpt?
From Mozart to Mahler and Strauss to Stravinsky… there’s a treasure trove of orchestral excerpts out there for the trumpet. What’s your favorite to play, or to hear? And are you working on any these days?

I love the Tuba Mirim from Verdi Requiem.
and Benjamin Britten Spring Symphony, the Merry Cuckoo for tenor singer and brass, mostly trumpets, a really beautiful thing.
Gunther Schiller Symphony For Brass. a tour de force for brass. I love it.

For me, I love Stravinsky, Mahler, and Bruckner. Petrouchka is my favorite excerpt to practice :) Never had a chance to play most of these, but I've listened many times!!
