trptjock Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 (edited) To any and all who may know. If a corps marches G bugles the entire season but a member wants to play a B-flat horn for I and E, is this permissible? Or would the individual have to perform on the instrument that the corps is fielding for that particular season? So: If a soprano player in the "insert corps name here" is playing on a G bugle for the season with the corps and wants to play DCI I & E on a B-flat trumpet, can he do it? Please advise. Thank you for your time. Edited May 21, 2003 by trptjock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter - you can do I&E on any legal instrument - does not have to be the one you march with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassguymike Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 w/Stp: Minus the stupid part, of course. You can use your own horn. My age out year, I took my G conversion off my contra played the horn as a Bb tuba. Many sop players pull out their trumpets for I&E.

trptjock Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 Just found out through DCI that a member of a corps can play on his B-flat trumpet for I &E if he is a trumept player by nature. But using a concert French horn, Trombone, Euphonium or Tuba is not permissible. If you are curious about this please contact DCI and ask for the Individual and Ensemble judges coordinator. Thought I would let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurt M. Weber Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 (not that it'd affect me one way or the other, just curious) What about a convertible concert/marching tuba? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 Only bellfront instruments are legal, otherwise I don't think it would be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
