Here's a video version of the whole piece.
Your conductor will help you to play in all the right places on the day, but you'll feel much more confident if you already know it quite well yourself!
If you can't practice at home much (neighbours etc), at least keep listening and following whilst doing the valves and slide positions.
We have three bits to learn and memorise. They happen at different times in the whole piece. Please practice them slowly and bit by bit to begin with, then gradually start to speed up. Try them with the backing tracks and make sure you can play them off by heart !
