Musical question here, if most schools didn't change their arrangements for power and went against themselves in the past which would win out? The uprights and eflats vs. Todays trumpet style mellos and btones. Why or why not? I would pose this question percussion wise but I'm hazy on who added quads vs. Who actually had them or tris, etc.

  • I go for the old instrumentation. The warmer sound of the uprights and the older jazzier sound from the eflats gave the bands less of a "bugle" sound and more of a full, smooth sound.
  • eflats over f horns

    marching btone over upright
    perfect combination
