This is the content past competitors want to see. Yeah, the shows themselves are fantastic, but flow marching ruins them. Live is something else. I’d rather hear it raw and up close than the flow marching broadcast.
They do that for mellophones to keep them polished as well as every other shiny silver instrument. The flutes arnt wearing any as well as the saxes or clarinets
@@MysticalOriginz I'm sure that is part of it but the primary reason is your fingers slip on the valves so they need to practice playing perfectly with gloves on because that is how they perform. It doesn't take much time to polish an instrument
@@TheHarloffHub in all seriousness, I really appreciate your content. I took 3 years off from teaching as my full time job to start my career in software engineering. I’m finally at a spot where I’m going to start working with a local high school group for their next marching season. I’ve already learned a lot from yours and other videos and I’m excited to take that to the kids I’ll be working with.
Congratulations Matt and Avon Band is the best High school band of the 🌍 planet
The reason is, I know Matt Harla pretty well from Carolina Crown. He’s an amazing brass and structure and teach him brass to be better.

@@gabrielh7517 I’m in marching band. That’s the reason they gave us. Plus wouldn’t that make trumpets have to wear gloves?
@@MysticalOriginz well I'm sorry but it's a very weak reason XD but just think about it, you want to practice the way you perform
My band has us wear gloves for the silver school owned instruments so that our finger oils don’t mess up the lacquer
Was the order shown in the video the order they warm up? Just curious
Yes! The order is the same
Do they use mellophones?
My favorite excerpt was "Name description"
