Jay Lichtmann’s Sheet Music
What’s in it: A ton of free sheet music for solo trumpet, trumpet ensembles and brass ensembles. Seriously, there’s a lot and they vary in difficulty.

IMSLP
What’s in it: The music community would be incomplete without IMSLP, where you can find most sheet music that is public domain, meaning free for anyone to download. Just go the their landing page and do a search for the genre you’re interested in. For example, if you search “trumpet solos” you will find a list of public domain solos. But you can also search for “Mahler Symphony 5” and acquire the full orchestra sheet music, then print it all or just the trumpet parts. Awesome sauce.

Trumpet Music Online
What’s in it: This is a page that takes you to the creator’s youtube channel, which has lots and lots of videos of popular music (from movies, tv, radio) covers for trumpet with the sheet music scrolling on the video. The player is a 16 year old trumpeter from the Netherlands who really loves trumpet. How awesome is that?!
