The Cavaliers have better tone quality than just about any other corps. They also have a far narrower dynamic range than any other corps. When the Cavaliers I go to school with come back after a season of marching, they have poor control at loud and soft dynamics. Instead of properly playing soft, staging and facing backfield are used to feign lower dynamic levels. I fail to see how both this approach and the "opposition's" mindless blasting approach are educational or entertaining. There are a select few corps that run the gamut of dynamic contrast with tone quality in mind--you'd just never know it by looking at the brass scores.
