Best Answer

if you are playing a Bb Trumpet, concert A is your B, and concert G is your A. To transpose to the trumpet note, go one whole step (two half steps) higher than the "concert" pitch.

What is the difference between a trumpet and a baroque trumpet?

As a general rule, when a part indicates "Trumpet" it is for the b-flat trumpet, so there is no difference. Depending on where you play, you may sometimes see a part for "trumpet in C" or some other key, but unless you play in a symphonic orchestra, that isn't all that common.

Can trumpets play voice parts?

It depends on what you mean. If you mean can you play directly off a voice/piano/choir part, the answer is yes, BUT if you are playing on a B-flat trumpet, you have to transpose the notes or it will sound wrong if you are playing with other instruments. Voice/choir music is basically always written in "concert" pitch, but a B-flat trumpet isn't a concert pitch instrument. For a B-flat trumpet, you play one note higher. If you see a C written, you must play a D to get the right pitch. However, if you are playing on a C trumpet, you can in fact play exactly what's written without transposing and it will be correct.

How do you transpose chords to b flat trumpet sheet music?

You can't It depends on what you mean. The B-flat trumpet plays one full tone below concert pitch, so to make the tone match, you must play one step higher. In other words, a C on the piano is a D on the trumpet. Chords work the same way. A C chord on the piano is a D chord on the trumpet. However, the trumpet can play only one note at a time, so a single trumpet cannot play a chord, but can play single notes of the chord.
