[quote=Anonymous]Back in the 80's when I was in school the boys played the brass, tenor and bass saxophones and percussion and the girls played woodwinds and alto sax if she is "cool". Part of this had to do with the weight of the instruments since it was a marching band. Also woodwinds required less air and were deemed girly. And spit valves on the brass instruments were just yucky! The macho boys loved horns because they were loud and could be heard from the highest bleachers. I am not sure how it is these more enlightened days but you should check if you are worried about stereotypes. [/quote]
