It's been four decades since I was in high school, but during marching season I switched to the bell lyre. Would have used my clarinet, but we had a zillion of them already and didn't need more. It's hard to be a double reed player during marching season.

On the other hand, I recently sold an antique bassoon with Army Quartermaster Corps markings that had a mounting bracket for the music holder (lyre) on the base of the bell. I can only imagine how many reeds and bocals they must have gone through each year...
