Useful detail

Performance tip

Before performing Trumpets, aim the repeated questions at one imagined listener so they sound intentional rather than merely recited. It will give Trumpets a clearer arc from the first section to the last.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Trumpets makes sense for a singer who can handle fairly active phrasing and sell the lyric’s point of view. It has some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
