HORNLINE
The Hornline convey's the music. It comprises of 4 sections. Trumpets, Mellophones, Baritones and Contra-Basses. This splits the hornline into a choir-like section. All brass instruments are forward-facing, where the Trumpet represents the Soprano voice, the Mellophone (French Horn) represents the Alto voice, the Baritone is the Tenor sound, and the Tuba is the Bass. |
DRUMLINE
The Drumline carries the rhythm through the show. It comprises of 3 sections. Snare Drums, Tenor Drums and Bass Drums. The Snare line's role during the performance is to keep time. They provide the higher pitched notes from the drumline. The tenor drums are made up of 4 drums placed together, with one smaller effect drum in the centre. The tenor line usually plays similar to the snare drums, although there is more musical movement. The bass line provides the impact of the corps, each bass is a different note, and usually played at different times to other bass'. |
FRONT ENSEMBLE
The Front Ensemble consists of tuned percussion such as Marimba, Xylophone and Glockenspiel, and adds depth to the overall sound. This is the only section of the corps that doesn't march. |
