The one with the high concert A. I wonder if M. Haydn wrote that line as a deliberate challenge to the trumpet world or it was purely a melodic choice.

Amazing that the players of the Baroque did it on a hand-built natural trumpet.

I believe it was likely played on a keyed trumpet, with keys like a saxophone.

From what I find by a quick look the keyed trumpet appeared around the turn of the 19th century which is after the Baroque era.

I think you're thinking of the Joseph Haydn concerto for trumpet which apparently was first performed on a keyed trumpet.
