Trumpcyms1993

I am looking for a 2009 WGI world championships patch. If anyone has one I would be willing to buy it. Please and thank you!

has anyone purchased the star of indiana anthology yet?

who was the last corp to make finals with G bugles? and i know that Star of Indiana was the last corp to make finals with 2 valve bugles. another interesting question. how many world class use large bore horns? You think most corps would considering Bugles were all large bore im pretty sure. I know most yamaha corps march .459 trumpets and compared to .468 bugles thats a big difference.

what ive heard the new system blue trumpets a much improved versions of the old king horns. they are meant to be played with the system blue mouthpieces and are some of the best playing marching trumpet out there. theyre also more expensive then the old king marching model and basically makes them obsolete. i dont think i would try to get one unless you were only going to play it for marching when you could get a xeno and use it for anything. just my two cents

if possible try to bring in someone that has experience with marching cymbals. but everything your doing sounds like your on your way to creating a great line good luck!

olds ultratones VR show up on ebay frequently and usually go for about 100 dollars in pretty good condition.

any idea how much it would cost to ship a soprano to florida?

If you have never had anything to do with marching cymbal lines you probably will not understand their importance, tradition, and opportunity it is for some people. The only way a cymbal line can negatively effect a score is if 1. the line doesn't march well. 2. visuals arent clean and together 3. crashes or parts being played are out of time. 4. splits and other parts are written badly 5. the line doesnt have a good sense of uniformity There is a different type of brotherhood and friendship when it comes to a cymbal line. That is different then any other part of the corp or unit. and it comes from the people in the line working hard to go from four or five people into a cymbal line and knowing eachother like brothers. When corps try to remove there cymbal lines there is usually a huge alumni uproar. If a corp loses its alumni support bad things can happen. some people think cymbal visually are "distracting"? yeah i think not. if a cymbal visual is distracting (they are only distracting if they are done badly) cymbal visuals add to the show people just have to learn to appreciate them. Im not saying all cymbal lines are good because there are definitely some bad ones that are out there and yes some of the things they do are distracting but only because they are just bad in general. but you know what is distracting seeing people walk up to a mic for a solo. some corps are cutting down the cymbal lines to add more horns and snares. honestly is marching 80 horns and 10 snares going to help you win? no. so is have 4 cymbals going to make you lose no. Cymbal lines can also give people who dont play brass or percussion a chance to experience dci. I have plenty of friends who played woodwind instruments and learned cymbals so they could march drum corp. People who talk about bringing drum corp the masses and expanding the people that can participate in drum corp. Cutting cymbals is a sure fire way to alienate some people from ever getting the chance to march or experience it. if you dont think cymbal lines add to a show or add to the corp you are sadly mistaken and need to pay more attention to them. Most people are still under the impression that cymbals is easy and is just crashing them together. And cymbal lines have far since evolved from the days of the 70's when holding for snares and just playing crashes were all they did. Playing cymbals is no longer just for the people that get cut from playing a drum. Cymbal playing is just as serious as playing a drum, horn, or spinning a flag. Cymbal lines are a part of drum corp like colorguards and drumlines are. Theyve been around since the beginning and should continue to stay around. I strongly support cymbal lines and all who have ever marched or taught the art of cymbal playing.

how much for a soprano?

Looking for used mellophone mouthpieces for a good price. I mean really good price like 10 dollars. any condition .

pioneer uses jupiter not king

in 2010 carolina crown used brass lacquered horns. People usually say that silver is slightly edgier not alot but a little. Also the finishes on silver horns are going to last longer and even longer with chrome.

Anyone try these cymbals yet?

what brand sop, how many valves, and how much for one?

Prices lowered 600 for king 300 for yamaha. 875 for both. send me your email address if you would like pictures of the horns will gladly send some :)
