Noun

trumpeter

1. A person, especially male, who plays the trumpet.

When piston cornets were introduced, a distinction was made between a person who played an old fashioned valve-less trumpet (a trumpeter) and a musician who played a Cornet-á-pistons (a trumpet player.) This distinction is mostly lost today, as the standard Bb trumpet is so much more prevalant than any museum-piece valve-less trumpet.
