- Richard Colwell, Michael Hewitt (2017) "Chapter 12. The Ensembles and Classroom Teaching / Specialty Marching Instruments" in The Teaching of Instrumental Music, Taylor & Francis, pp. 156−160 ISBN: 978-1-317-21273-7. " Marching band is an outdoor activity that does not provide an ideal acoustical environment. Woodwind instruments and some brass instruments are limited in their ability to direct their sound while marching. The percussion section includes instruments not normally used in concert ensembles. ",
" The emergence of corps-style marching bands brought about a need for instruments whose direction of sound could be manipulated, similar to the trumpet and trombone. These bell-front instruments include the sousaphone, mellophone, and marching baritone to replace the tuba, horn, and euphonium. These and other instruments have emerged to fill an acoustic dissonance between concert and marching styles. "
