The Trumpet Player
Trumpet Player
Langston Hughes
The music
from the trumpet at his lips
is honey
mixed with liquid fire
the rhythm
from the trumpet at his lips
is ecstasy
distilled from old desire--

Ah, great picture. The note that you are playing plays the same pitch as an A (1 and 2). Also, the proper way to play so your valves don't get stuck is to keep your right pinky out of the ring, but put it on top. (:

Great shot - nice lighting. I'm not completely convinced your subject is a real trumpet player, though...
