Contrabass bugle (original) (raw)
The contrabass bugle (usually shortened to contra or simply called the marching tuba) is the lowest-pitched brass instrument in the drum and bugle corps and marching band hornline. It is essentially the drum corps' counterpart to the marching band's sousaphone: the lowest-pitched member of the hornline, and a replacement for the concert tuba on the marching field.

| dbo:abstract | The contrabass bugle (usually shortened to contra or simply called the marching tuba) is the lowest-pitched brass instrument in the drum and bugle corps and marching band hornline. It is essentially the drum corps' counterpart to the marching band's sousaphone: the lowest-pitched member of the hornline, and a replacement for the concert tuba on the marching field. It is different from the other members of the marching band and drum corps hornlines in that it rests on the shoulder of the player, rather than being held in front of the body. Because the contrabass bugle can get in the way of commonly worn headgear, such as a shako, it is not uncommon for contrabass players to wear a beret instead of whatever else the rest of the ensemble is wearing for headgear. This also gives the players some distinction from the rest of the brass ensemble. (en) La contrebasse à vent (ou contretuba) est un instrument classés dans la famille des cuivres. C'est le plus grave des tubas. De grande taille, il est généralement en si, en ut, en mi♭ ou en fa et sert dans les orchestres symphoniques, les orchestres d'harmonie et les fanfares. La contrebasse à vent est équipée soit d'un système de pistons, soit d'un système de palettes (de 3 à 6). Le musicien qui en joue est appelé le contrebassiste ou, moins souvent, le contrebasse. Le diminutif « contras » est aussi utilisé pour désigner cette section d'instruments. Le terme de « contrebasse à vent » est également employé pour désigner d'autres instruments graves de la famille des cuivres, tels que le saxhorn contrebasse, le sousaphone ou l'hélicon. (fr) |
