WHAT IS DRUMLINE ????

 

DRUMLINE

BATTERY

PIT

The marching section of the Drumline:

Snares
Tenors
Bass Drums
Cymbals

The front sideline section of the Drumline:

Marimbas, Xylophones, Vibraphones, Bells, Timpani, and assorted auxiliary percussion

DRUMLINE = BATTERY +  PIT  

Note: Since double-reed instruments (bassoons and oboes) are not used in marching band, students who play those instruments and wish to be in band in high school must either learn another wind instrument such as clarinet, OR be in the Color Guard (flags), OR tryout for the Drumline.  This year we had 8 players in the Drumline who play other instruments in the concert season.
