	Foot Guard Band
		Because Band members are members of the Foot Guard before all else, many choose to participate in Foot Guard activities outside of their ensembles.
		The Band is composed of two basic ensembles, a concert band and a marching band (referred to in State Statutes as "Band" and "Field Music").
		Its instrumentation differs slightly from the concert band primarily because certain instruments found in the concert band, such as the bassoon, the electric bass and the French horn, are not well suited to being played while marching.
