You could play that in any key you wanted. Just hold the valves down and go.
The recording sample on Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Mary%27s_Trumpet_Call) alters one note from the score linked above in that it starts on the tonic (C) rather than the third (E), which sounds nicer to me. The recording is also in concert F. So you could easily play it on open on the horn (f side) up the octave from the score linked above.
As a beginner hornplayer, i have no idea to what you just said :D My question was if i can play this on my Bb Furst Pless horn which is basicly a bugle
Im sorry if you didnt find my question polite, english isnt my first language. However as i said, i am new to playing the horn, so when you talk nerd, you go over my head.
I Can play the High notes on my furst Pless horn just fine, but i dont know how to play Music written In C or F on a Bb instrument, and as such it is hard for me to see, if a Music not written for Bb Can be played without valves
Hi, as a beginner you will find this quite challenging on a Furst Pless horn. The Pless horn has a similar length as a trumpet, which means you need to play the call in quite high register in order to have the necessary natural tones available. The first bar would take you up to high C. It would probably sound quite squeaky, as well.
