Familiarize your self with every rythm possible. the more you know, the more sought after of a trumpet player you will become. I play everything i can get my hands on. am i the best site reader int he world? hell no! but i more oftent han not i can play what's put in front of me with out ever seein it before. if i can't, then there's something i can now say i've seen, so i can play another piece with it in it and not have to worry about it.
And learn to recognize when the typing, er, notation isn't correct, and adjust accordingly. :D
