Not knowing anything about the trumpet, the horn and Brandenburg 2, here
is one more thing perhaps worth considering:
There is an instrument now referred to as the baroque clarinet. It is
not the chalumaux, and sounds quite different. It plays in a pretty high
register. This is the reason it is called clarinet, ie a small clarino,
because the sound is almost trumpet like. Is there any indication that
perhaps this might have been the instrument Bach thought of?
Probably completely off-track I am sure, just something which crossed my
mind reading all these discussions on the too high trumpet part.
