It's not unison  the trumpet part is a third below the clarinet. I've played it many times.

All The Best!

Therefore the Bb trumpet part would be the same as the Bb clarinet part as originated by Alphonse Picou - or variation thereof such as Johnny Dodds with King Oliver, or Sidney Bechet and Albert Nicolas playing successive choruses with Jelly Roll Morton. Certainly unison is the way the KB Jazzmen used to play it in the clubs way back in the early 60's. It was a remarkable feat of trumpet playing from Kenny, especially at the tempo they take it. Wow!
