At this point, I am pretty much ready to record my project. I think I will record it in groups of three pages and edit it so it flows smoothly. I've got it to an acceptable tempo (for the one really fast 32-note+ part I decided to to 'falls' from the first note - where I hit the note and then chromatic down quickly w/a decrescendo).
The biggest problem I am having is fingering, now that I've got it up to tempo. I can finger the slow parts fine on the trumpet, but since I am holding it with one hand and pushing the valves down with the middle part of my fingers, fast parts sound a bit sloppy. I'm working on those as best I can, although they may just be more staccato as my tongue will cover up my finger movement.
