Trumpet (organ stop)

The Trumpet organ stop (also known as Trompette, Trompete and Trompet) is a generic term for a fairly wide variety of reed stops that typically imitate the orchestral trumpet one way or another. It is found in almost all pipe organs and is the most common of the chorus reeds. It is typically found at 8' pitch, though it may sometimes be found at 16'. A 4' Trumpet is typically designated as Clarion or Clairon.
