Wondering What Brass Section a Bass Trumpet Fits In

mrsemman

Just a quick question for the experts out there. I have been using my bass trumpet primarily as a warm down instrument, but since I received my Parduba 3 Star double cup mouthpiece, the sound and articulation have been easier than ever to obtain; and I would like to use it in our community concert band. Would it be better used in the trombone or baritone section or elsewhere?

Thank you all in advance for any information.

Trombone section. Hopefully the trombones will welcome the help.

Thank you for your response. I kind of figured that on my own after I wrote the post, but had hoped that it could have been used in other sections such as the horns or baritones.

Thanks again.
