Best Answer

The conductor is responsible to set the tempo, but the band has to take the responsibility to maintain the tempo. The percussion makes for a good metronome because of the monotonous, clear nature of the sounds produced. For example if the Tubas slow down, so does the band, if the Tubas speed up, so does the band.

But one would think that as in an orchestra, where the concert master or lead first violin assists the conductor in setting the tempo, so it would also be with

the concert band, where the first or lead Clarinet performs exactly the same function.
