Marching band is a great way for students to meet people, and better adapt to high school\/college life. Among the instruments that compose a marching band, the trumpet is a key element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A very common question among parents and students is how to choose a good trumpet for marching band. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most marching bands don’t require a very refined sound, and instruments are often roughed around during practice. Therefore, investing in an expensive horn may not seem be a wise choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, some students will continue to play their trumpet for years (e.g. through college), and will also use it for indoor and concert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So should you get a entry-level, intermediate, or pro horn? How much should you pay for it? Is it better to get a new or used trumpet? What are some of the best options out there for marching band? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A used Bach Stradivarius or Yamaha Xeno is generally a good and affordable long-term investment. These two trumpets are likely the most vetted trumpets out there due to their quality build, good sound, and affordable price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
