Check out my 2015 video of them! https://youtu.be/mneaYWXZb04
The US Marine Drum & Bugle Corps hornline plays their warmup “A minor” before performing at the DCA Downingtown Classic on July 26, 2014. Also includes drumline footage, and a close-up of the two-valve soprano G bugle they use! Enjoy the sounds of The Commandant’s Own!
OOH F ing RAH
Wow, what a sound! I miss that dark G sound, great thing we still have it in one of the best marching units on Earth!
At 1:27 Now that’s a Bugle! Oh the sweet sweet sound. 🙂
2 valve Kanstul g horns are still a bugle, the only notes they cannot duplicate is a minor or g sharp which requires both second and third valve depressed otherwise slight modifications when writing. This warm up is a special treat.
Great sound and wonderful cutoff all at once. Go Marines!
