instruments - Difference between Baritone and Euphonium - Music . . . The euphonium has a different design path; the intent, from the beginning, was to create a baritone-range instrument with a warmer, sweeter timbre than that of existing tenor instruments like the trombone and saxhorns, more like the French horn and its contrabass helicon cousin (the predecessor to the modern sousaphone and ultimately the
Size difference between Baritone Horn and Euphonium The euphonium and the baritone differ in that the bore size of the baritone horn is typically smaller than that of the euphonium, and the baritone is primarily cylindrical bore, whereas the euphonium is predominantly conical bore The two instruments are easily interchangeable to the player, with some modification of breath and embouchure, since the two have identical range and essentially
