i don't like it.
it's fucking harsh man. i can't think of a better word to describe it than HARSH.
sure i appreciate amazing musicians like miles davis, but i'm still not a fan of THE MOTHERFUCKING TRUMPET.
as far as i'm concerned some mentally handicapped person probably invented the instrument and thought it sounded "great" and by some strange twist of fate it became a popular instrument.
i actually like most brass instruments like the trombone and tuba, but there's something about the HARSHNESS of the trumpet that gets on my nerves. it's just NOT beautiful -- actually a lot of the frequencies get on my fucking nerves. fuck the trumpet.
discuss.

It all depends on the frequencies and blend you are after. Trumpets are traditionally used to get your attention within an orchestra to punctuate the composition not be beautiful.

My ex girlfriend plays Viola and sits directly infront of the trumpets. They played lots of opera and the trumpets usually start the piece off as an introduction, a few death scenes and at the finale. They could go for a pint next door sometimes whilst the opera is being played.

You need to wash them balls and make them crispy again as soon as you can.

I like it. I dislike the dull sound of the saxophone, for instance.

well seeing as only the love boat theme can make my balls moist, i would have to play the love boat theme 24/7 in order to keep my balls moist (which i am not willing to do) at the moment. at the moment.

What i said isn't necessarily a bad thing, there's plenty of great trumpet tracks (like the horace silver one ye posted).

It's not an attack. It's just another way of music as I see it.

I get what you mean. Miles must have the harshest trumpet sound btw. Here's some Lee Morgan :) The compression is terrible though, and the album version is better but well, needed to post some Lee Morgan :)
I guess in jazz trumpets were chosen because when you play with drums and without amplification you're more likely to be heard with a trumpet (and it did all start without amps). Plus they're easy to carry, and you can learn @ the army. Actually there are loads of reasons. You just need instruments that cover different areas of the spectrum.

i once worked for a woman, who played the trumpet and was a lesbian. for some reason we discussed hand-shells and she once asked me if i'd order hand-shells from a gun-shop for her (which i didn't do, cause i had little money on the bank). anyway .. the moral of the story is: she was a harsh woman playing a harsh instrument.
