Sometimes music scores are non-transposed to make things easier for the composer and conductor.
The french horn is in the category of Brass instruments. All other brass instruments are technically relatives of the french horn. ---------------- The closest thing I could think of is a mellophone.... Its like a french horn but for Marching Band.... It sort of looks like a trumpet. Trumpets are also relatives of the french horn... I would suggest if you are a beginner to start out on the trumpet then move to one of these instruments.... I would know because I play mellophone now and its my 3rd year of band and I just stopped playing trumpet. Hope this helps.
The Bb Trumpet, NOT the French Horn, has 9 ft. French horns have 12-18 feet of tubing.
Cornets and Flugelhorns and basically the same as a trumpet, but they have different bore types and different tubing shapes that make the tonal qualities different. Depending on what mean by similar, other instruments can be considered similar. French Horns are similar in that they have three valves (normally) and have similar playing characteristics, they are just normally in a different key. A baritone horn is similar in that most of the fingering positions are the same, and you can play trumpet music on a baritone without transposing. The same can be said for a euphonium, except that euphonium players normally play bass clef music instead of treble.
Usually tuba, trombone, french horn and two trumpets (another trumpet player might play piccolo trumpet)
In a symphony orchestra, you would typically find instruments like the trumpet, trombone, French horn, and tuba. Each of these brass instruments plays a unique role, contributing to the overall sound and texture of the orchestral music. The French horn, for example, is known for its rich, warm tone, while the trumpet often carries melodic lines. Together, they enhance the dynamic range and color of the orchestra.

To transpose music for trumpet, you need to read the music in a different key than written. For example, if the music is written for a different instrument like a piano, you would need to play it in a key that works for the trumpet. This involves understanding the transposition rules for the trumpet and adjusting the notes accordingly.
In music it would be a horn
To transpose trumpet music to concert pitch, you need to raise the written pitch by two whole steps. For example, if the trumpet music is written in the key of C, you would need to play it in the key of D on a concert pitch instrument.

The oboe would be on the top, the trumpet below it, and the piano on the bottom. This comes from orchestral scores: they have the woodwinds on top, brass below that, percussion below that, chorus (if used) below that, and the strings on the bottom. That's a good rule of thumb to follow. If you are using a music notation program like Sibelius it will do that for you automatically.
I would think local churches would allow you to copy their sheet music if you asked. The related link is sheet music for the song.
The key of c is open valve. I would know, I play trumpet, french horn and mellophone.

First of all, you'll need to know what key the song is in. If the band is playing the song in a concert (C), the trumpet (which is a Bb instrument) will need a copy of the music in concert (D). So you don't really need special sheet music, unless you are wanting a different accompaniment score. This would be a different part than what everyone else is playing, but it would still need to be one whole step higher.For example:Key for Band..........Key for Trumpet(C) Instruments.....(Bb) Instrument============================(C).......................(D)(D).......................(E)(E).......................(F#)(Eb).....................(F)(G)......................(A)(A)......................(B)(B)......................(C#)Best Option:If you purchase sheet music onlin from a source that uses SCORCH, you can easily print a part for the band and then transpose up two half step/one whole step and print the trumpet music.A Second Option:The other option is software such as Finale or Smartscore where the music is scanned into the program. It will then allow you to transpose and otherwise manipulate the score. More expensive and most of this type of software does require a fair amount of time using it before becoming proficient at it.Another Option:The last option is to purchase music for the entire band, which will provide everyone with music for their respective instruments. Sites like PraiseCharts.com offers this for about $30 per song. That's fine if it's a new song for the band but not really an option if the trumpet is the only one needing music. The entire band would have to use the new score because it's not likely that the purchased trumpet part would match the score the band is playing (not only the key the song is in but also the score itself.) Many versions of the same song exist by different arrangers and aren't always easily mixed and matched.One Last Thing:If you are in a smaller church that belongs to a denomination -- or if you have any other connections to a larger church, you may want to contact them to see if they have any trumpet music that you can borrow. We have done this in the past and were able to borrow a lot of music for an instrument that they no longer had on their worship team. If they ever require the use of this music again, we will gladly return it.Best wishes with this endeavor and I hope my information has been helpful.--Kathy B. (Mesa, AZ)
