Hello,

I'm engraving a new opera for a French composer and I'm wording about a specific piece of terminology -- "Trompette en Ut" or "Trompette en Do"? I have a vague feeling "Trompette en Ut" is archaic, but I don't have any recent French orchestral scores to check against.


For trumpet players, "Trompette en Ut" is certainly not archaic -- it's used in all the Alphonse-Leduc trumpet and brass ensemble publications and is very clear to the people that matter most in that situation, the trumpet players.
