In a 'true' brass band (English style) everything is supposed to be in Treble clef. Doesn't happen much unless the music was printed there and intended for brass band.

American (Sousa type) brass bands don't follow that as a rule.

The other rule we break in our band is we take all who show up. So instead of 2 Euphoniums and 2 Baritones we may have 4 of each.

Just found out our spring concert rehearsals start Wed. Heros is the title. I hope he leaves William Tell outta that one.
