Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer?

It’s not the first time I’ve thought about it, but it came up again last night as I was listening to Quintessence volume 2, Stan Getz and Chet Baker recorded live. (an amazing disc) I have to say that for myself, I prefer the saxophone because it seems capable of infinite textures and subtle shadings as well as eye opening dynamic shifts. Of course I love the trumpet too; especially in the hands of a player like Chet Baker.

This guy just does it all.....I mean ALL except the drum kit.
To me James Morrison is a once in a life time all-rounder!

Talk about adjusting your chops.  lol

I am biased - see my user image.
That is my tuner screen-shot of me working on the "unobtainium" octave. Hey, I’m within 2 cents at 105 dB :)

Here, listen to this soli section nugget by the Smokin Section - Steve Patrick on lead and Joe M. on sax.
