MELLOPHONES!!!!!!
The mellophones are the up-and-coming section in the band. We have style, talent, and yet we manage to keep our egos in check well enough to be the most well-liked section in the band. Really, there is no way that this section could possibly be better to join.
We have mellophones for all who want to try them at Duke. Of course, it is easiest if you come in with mellophone skills but, if you don't, don't let that get in the way of your dreams. Luckily for you dreamers, it is not required that you have ever played the mellophone before. We have members who have had great success switching to the mellophone for the first time at college. If you need help, you will get it. Not to mention the brass stipend.
Since you are reading this page, you are already one step closer to being a mellophone (aka self fulfillment). If you haven't signed up for the band's email list, do it now. If you haven't joined the interest group on facebook, do it now. If you have questions that you would like to email to your loving, helpful section leader Kelly Calabrese, do it now at kelly.calabrese@duke.edu.
