Thanks Gents! Notating was not as much the problem as skill here. Although the notation does show the notes to be accented, there is something not being translated from the brain to the mouth. When I ask him about the accents written on the score. He knows what they are. He is just not catching it with his mouth.

Mac, if you do not mind explaining to a guitar player so he can tell the trumpeter how to execute the accent would be helpful. I played hispart on my guitar. The sax guys sound off their part, etc. If I understand you properly he needs to ""Breath Accent" -- which is done by applying more air pressure without any tonguing" does that mean he pushes more air (visually puffing cheeks) while moving his tongue out of the way?

Unfortunately, he does not carry a pencil with him. But, in a church setting where all are volunteers, you have to keep an open mind of what people bring and how much time they actually spend on their instrument on their own. I am trying to learn how to communicate what he is to do that accomplishes the desired sound. Being he is the only trumpeter there, I do not have anyone to ask at our rehearsals. And the dilemma is we have a couple of good sax players that nail the part. But, without that trumpet blasting the top part it loses the feel.

Thanks again, trumpters, for trying to help me help him play the part. I appreciate any mechanical advice as to what to tell him to achieve that part.
