1. An instrument which is honestly not to difficult to play correctly.
2. The most egotistical and narcissistic of brass holes, who feel they must always be mean.
3. When it is played well, it is a beautifully sounding instrument which excels in
Jazz and Marching style
music.
4. Scrap metal. I'
m referring to the players here, not the instrument.
Whilst trumpets are beautiful instruments, the
people it attracts are not so. They
will never admit to being wrong, and if you are a woodwind, expect
crap to be thrown your way. They are often petty, immature, and are clearly over compensating for something. I suggest not paying any attention to them during band classes, as they
will often be physically injuring each other, trying to pull rank and skill on you (This often fails in the skill department), and otherwise acting as the stereotypical idiotic teenage boy. (Even if they are
female.)
They also seem to have some sort of personal vendetta against the clarinets, who often share parts. It might be something to do with them having the same concert pitch. (Bb)
The
clarinet is the woodwind version of the trumpet. If you are a trumpeter, get over your
sad delusions. If you are a clarinet, I know how it feels. I'
m sorry.
