The greatest of the forgotten instruments in band. Mellophones are the marching version of a French horn, because french horns don't project properly to be used for marching. Many schools nowadays don't have them however, since EWHS is the best, we do. They're played in corps and often the people that play them are pretty timid, unlike their similar looking trumpets. Mellophones are the best!!!
Mellophone Player: I play the mellophone
Non Bandgeek: What's that?
Mellophone player: It's a trumpet looking object in the key of F which a huge bell the size of a French horn bell.
