    "​ The emergence of corps-style marching bands brought about a need for instruments whose direction of sound could be manipulated, similar to the trumpet and trombone. These bell-front instruments include the sousaphone, mellophone, and marching baritone to replace the tuba, horn, and euphonium. These and other instruments have emerged to fill an acoustic dissonance between concert and marching styles. ",
    "​ The mellophone is a midrange voice in the marching band. ... There are also marching horns; they are slightly more conical, use a horn mouthpiece, and have a tone more closely resembling a real horn, but are seldom used. ... The marching horn is pitched in Bb. ... The most universal criticism of the marching horn is that due to the proportion of conical to cylindrical tubing it is easily overblown, especially by trumpet players. ",
    "​ The marching baritone and euphonium are replacements for the concert instruments, since they offer the option of using a bell that is directed to the front like the trumpet and trombone. Some concert instruments also use a front-facing bell, but many are angled upward or to the side and are held with at least one arm wrapped around the instrument. Some concert instruments also use a front-facing bell, but many are angled upward or to the side and are held with at least one arm wrapped around the instrument. ",
    "​ Marching euphoniums are newer than the baritone. They are more elongated, have a more conical shape, a larger bore, and bigger bell than the baritone. ",
    "​ The use of the sousaphone (see Figure 12.16) is common in the public schools because of its versatility. ... "
