Is Patriotism Growing In Our Country?

More and more trumpet players are starting to share their instrumental voice in honor of our country. Why this trend is increasing, who can say, but it is my wish that even more players begin to add their musical voices to the cause.

    Do all trumpeters have to be patriotic? Even if they don’t come from the US?

      Trumpet players don’t have to be anything. Just ask them. Especially lead players.

      As with all citizens, it is your choice to be patriotic or not.

      It is also your choice to which country you pledge your patriotism.

      Patriotism is like a religion, both are personal choices one make for themselves.
