Description:
The Pocket Trumpet Is A Compact Size B? Trumpet, With The Same Playing Range As The Regular Trumpet. The Length Of The Tubing, If Straightened, Would Measure The Same As That Of A Standard Trumpet But Tubing Is Wound More Tightly Than That Of A Standard Trumpet In Order To Reduce Its Size While Retaining The Instrument’S Range. The Bell Is Generally Of Smaller Diameter Than A Standard Trumpet. It Is Not A Standardized Instrument To Be Found In Concert Band Or Orchestra Brass Sections And Is Generally Regarded As A Novelty. It Is Used Mostly By Trumpet Players As A Practice Instrument That Can Be Packed In A Suitcase And Taken To Places Where Carrying Standard Trumpets Would Be An Issue. Although Not Having A Reputation As A Serious Concert Band Or Orchestra Instrument, It Has Occasionally Been Used By Soloists In Jazz Or Other Ensembles To Add Flair And Variety. Sizes
