Program Notes
The trumpet section moves front and center to demonstrate their lightning technique required to perform Travelin' Trumpets. The director is encouraged to provide a brisk tempo, which should cause fingers to fly. The band accompaniment is rather easy, since the trumpet section does most of the work. Hopefully, nothing will catch fire!
