Misc. Notes The 2nd trumpet part contains many instances of written D5 (for C trumpet) in unison with trumpet 1. This may be because most C trumpets of the time (1816) could not sound D4. 2nd trumpet players using modern trumpets might elect to lower these unison D5s an octave - or written E4 for the Bb trumpet.
