      yeah, band should just come with a purchase requirement of something like the ETY Plugs or ER20XS. Some passive high fidelity SPL attenuators so you can still hear what's going on, but you can sit next to other band members without going deaf. Sitting beside other piccolo players or in front of the trumpet section is a quick route to hearing loss and tinnitus.

    Story time: My high school marching band had two piccolo players, me and my friend. We played this song one year and I had it perfect every time we practiced. We didn’t have a football team (small school) so our only performance was at a showcase called the Cavalcade of Bands. It was about 0C (32F), so when it came time for this piccolo part I started out fine until spit got clogged in the keys. All I could do was stand there and pretend to play. I was devastated because it was so fun to play, but with the stupid keys clogged I couldn’t get higher than a C without squealing. Now I blow into the keys after every song to prevent that from ever happening again.
    Also, if tuning one piccolo is pain then tuning two piccolos is practically torture 😭

      Ironic too that none of us on wind instruments really play with a 'neutral' embouchure across the range of an instrument, it varies with (literally) each note - and most musicians I know listen to the surrounding sounds and tune to them, it's an automatic process, honed over the decades...@@denisemayosky1955

    I recently graduated high school and our last piece we played was “The Stars and Stripes Forever”(the piccolo solo she was playing) and 2 weeks before the concert I had to learn the piccolo to play the piece. Also i was a flute player on my 5th year at that time and never played a piccolo. So those 2 weeks were hell. My ears ringing all the time, tuning was almost impossible(considering our piccolos were a bit dingy). Even though it was hell, I enjoyed playing that piece as a piccolo player.

    Tbh, as a Euphonium player a good amount of our music has flute solo parts, but the the thing is, the clarinets or the saxophones end up drowning them out. But as being in the low brass, I’m used to being the people that play a lot of long notes to hold the beat and rarely do I get a low brass solo.😂😂
