Is band camp usually with the majoretts??? Also see below?

Question

Ours is with the majoretts. But I am right in front of the majoretts in the stands when we are not marching. But they pratice with us and some time throw us off. I play mellophone in marching band but French horn in the concert band. But also, is it normal for me to sit with trobones and baritone sax in the back row?? Also the baritone horn as well. The trumpets are right in front of me.But I sound so much like an alto sax but also my instrument has a few tenor sax parts because my band director lost the B flat horn peices. But is that normal for a B flat horn to read tenor sax parts but you know an octave lower or so. Just wanted an opion... READ ALL PLEASE And give me an answer though thank you for answering

Answer 1

Calm down, there is more to life then marching band. Write your own horn parts if you want, some of my horn band mates did that. Maybe if the majorettes mess you up, you should praactice more with them. Perhaps they think you mess them up. If you are solid with your music, it shouldn't matter where you sit. Your band director wouldn't give you someone else's music (like tenor sax) if it didn't fit with the rest of the band.
