Marching Bands

I saw there there wasn't already a thread about this so I decided to make one.

Marching bands consist of a group of various woodwind, brass, or percussion instruments, who perform musically while also marching in time to create visual effects pertaining to a particular theme.

-Color-guard

-Euphonium
-Mellophone
-Cornet
-Sousaphone
-Tuba
[B]-Woodwind[/B]

-Tenor Drums
-Basses
-Marimba
