But for what it's worth, having marched in G and being a music educator and brass player... I find the contrasting claims concerning the sound of the G and Bb/F lines to be dubious. Not a trained musician or have a trained ear. But have played G from piston/rotor to 3 valves. Any difference in sound I might make out could be attributed to different manufacturers and different styles of playing. IOW when I would go to DCA I couldn’t pick out G or Bb corps by sound.

Drum corps today just does not sound the same. Doesn't give me goosebumps like it used to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, always called my piston/rotor a “modified signaling device”. And that was using one of the better manufacturers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
