I thought so too! Musescore did that automatically, and any time I tried to change it, it just inputted the eighth triplet on its own (???) I guess maybe that measure is corrupted in the file and somehow the program didn't catch it? I'll try to do somethin' about it, again, at some point lol Thanks for pointing that out to me, confirming that suspicion lol! But I suppose it's easy for me with brass quintet music because I was a trumpet player for the better part of 11 years. I understand intimately, the timbre, range, and capabilities of a trumpet, and the other instruments in the brass family as well. Trumpet came naturally to me, as well, once I picked it up. LOVE me some brass ❤️

Hi again @UncleRed99! Nice quintet! I have struggled myself to write for brass ensembles as I often expect too much from the Trumpets and think that their range should extend much higher than Musescore allows. I really enjoyed the music and I think it was good that you found a way out of writer's block using this ensemble. I also do not think the piece sounds at all unfinished. I think it easily finds rest and resolution in probably many places - it just seems like one of those pieces somehow. I noticed something in the score which looks wrong: The 8th note triplets here take up only the duration of a quarter note and hence the measure for the French Horn here has a duration of 3 beats. I think the rendition somehow plays it as quarter note triplets akin to this measure: and even the pitch content in the French Horn seems the same. Thanks for sharing!
