I always planned to make playlists for every major instruments in the orchestra, problem is, I'm not a musician or musicologist, so I think it's better to share such playlists made by the professionals. Luckily, last week I stumbled upon this nice article:
Spotify: What It Means For Classical Music Fans during my daily monitoring of everything Spotify and Classical, and found out the author
Sam Callahan is a trumpet player and student at Indiana University's renowned Jacobs School of Music (Xenakis taught there and established a studio). I asked Sam if he would like to share a playlist of his favorite recordings of the trumpet repertoire, and he made two! Here's Sam:

The
Trumpet Solo Shortlist (18 tracks, 1 hour) is an introduction to music for trumpet soloist and accompaniment drawn from the more complete playlist below. It features a movement or two from the repertoire's seminal multi-movement works, a few shorter one-movement pieces, and a small sampling of modern trumpet music. The playlist is in approximate chronological order, beginning in the Baroque era and ending with arrangements of music originally written for other instruments. I chose my personal favorite recording of each piece, usually leaning towards period instrument performances (done on a valveless trumpet by Niklas Eklund) when it came to the older works.
This longer playlist
Trumpet Solo Works (221 tracks, 14 hours) is still only a portion of Spotify's amazing collection of trumpet solo music. Most pieces are for trumpet and orchestra or piano accompaniment, but some pieces, like Henze's thrilling Sonatina, are for trumpet alone. The playlist includes the full album for each Shortlist track and much more, including many lesser-known gems (check out Handel's gorgeous "Eternal Source of Light Divine, performed by Niklas Eklund.) There are also a few arrangements of pieces not originally for trumpet on albums by Alison Balsom and Maurice Andre. These are magnificent demonstrations of the instrument's full range of capabilities.

It fits perfectly flush with the Submariner's case and rolex replica integrates brilliantly everywhere else. And due to its tone black color it also blends well with the black dial and replica watches the Submariner's cerachrom bezel. However, while the RubberB strap does a great job of giving an alternative strap to the popular rolex replica Submariner watch, it cannot however undo the fact that Rolex does not design their watches for ease of strap replacement. Replacing the Rolex Submariner bracelet to install the replica watches RubberB strap was not super hard, but it's also not easy. Short of bringing it to a watchmaker and paying the typical strap replacement fee, replica watches replacing the strap, at least for me, was a two-hour affair. While I did not rolex replica spend the entire two hours replica watches replacing the strap, I opted to take my time so as not to scratch replica watches uk the bracelet or the case.
