Euphonium

Picture
The euphonium is a low brass instrument that plays the same notes as the trombone but looks like the tuba's smaller cousin.  Its mouthpiece is the same size as the trombone's, but it produces a warmer sound due to its larger bell.  Whereas notes on a trombone are changed by moving the slide, notes on a euphonium are changed by pressing down valves.  Euphonium (also sometimes called the baritone) is a very important instrument in the band.  Check out the examples below!

             Listen to how beautiful this instrument sounds!                                  The fingers really get flying on this one!
