| Anyone know if musical notation for this call is available? I've started transcribing the call from YouTube videos but making slow progress so far. It sounds like the calls are made on an E-flat trumpet/bugle which further confuses my efforts at transcription. |

I don’t understand how a Eb vs a Bb makes figuring out the pitches any more difficult. Just play the notes on whatever horn, or piano, you normally play and write them down.
You might be able to find it in the charts for Herb Alpert’s song The Lonely Bull. It opens with a bugle call. |

Yes, the intro to "The Lonely Bull" is part of the bugle/trumpet call used in bullfights--thanks! |
