Sure, you can play loud and high for that stuff, but your ability to play soft and lyrical will slowly deteriorate. I even noticed this in my playing after regular marching season. I suggest just playing a wide variety of things while in Corps. so you don't lose any abilities you already have.

BTW, have fun marching with them, I'm sure it will be a blast!
My corps is actually preatching use a good sound at all times, its not always the loudest. But ya either way I will be playing alot louder than concert, and jazz for that matter.
