The FEI also does not allow the Dr. Bristol. Both Dressage and Eventing disciplines allow the Dr Bristol in our U.S. national competitions My suggestion is that for USEF National Eventing Competitions we accept the same bits that USEF National Dressage competitions do in the interest of keeping it simple.
Percussion Instruments. Bass Drum - The bass drum is a percussion instrument and is the lowest and largest member of the drum family. Bass drums are used in orchestral music as well as marching bands. Cymbals - Percussions are music instruments that are either struck, shaken or scraped and may or may not have pitch. Cymbals are a perfect example of a non-pitched percussion instrument. The type that is used in marching bands is called crash cymbals.
A drum major is also responsible for calling the band to attention, beginning, and conducting the show. The drum major may use a whistle, vocal, or hand commands to accomplish this. This practice goes back to the military origins of the marching or field band.A marching band review (parade) begins like a field show. band director or corps director assumes administrative responsibility. In the absence of the Band Director, the Drum Major carries the authority of the director or instructor and assumes complete leadership over the band.
