  1. I have a King 3v bell front marching french horn. It actually plays quite well and has excellent projection. It is nothing like the scrap metal I played on when I marched.

    So why would you say so emphatically no? Personal experience with modern equipment? Or bad memories?

    In general I'm just not a fan of Bb mellos. Had to play one in high school, and was surprised when we used them in my college band, as well. I do know a lot of people who like them...it's just a preference thing I guess.

  2. I was having a little trouble finding the answer to this on a few different corps sites, so I figured I'd come here.

    I was planning on auditioning for a corps this winter, and I was counting on borrowing a mellophone for marching band from the university I will attend this fall. However I just found out that the horn I'm borrowing is in Bb. Knowing that corps use mellophones in f, am I going to be able to audition with the Bb, or will I need to find a way to get an f? Thank you!
