[TPIN] Brass Quintet - opinions on 2nd trumpet key

[Tim Phillips]

And you think I was saying something else?  Go back and read again.  
It's about the overall effect - nothing other than the music matters.

If my desire is to make the quintet sound as great as it can, then it is 
about me :)  Methinks you are throwing some flame bait about again...

Unsuccessfully I might add.
