hiiiii. :]
i'm a flutist, but i asked for, and surpisingly recieved, a baritone for christmas. i couldn't stomach the trumpet emboucher and i hated the positions on the tombone, so the baritone was a happy medium for me as a brass instrument. besides, it's tone is so much prettier than the former mentioned. :]

I can play any brass instrument. They're the best.
Bari's don't quite stack up to a Tuba, though. :C

Euphonium is NOT a baritone.
This is something that has been scewed by instrument companies in the past to push the prices of certain instruments (mainly if the instrument had four valves, they considered it a euph) higher.
A euphonium is more conical, while a baritone, though not as cylindrical as a trombone, is more so. This means that euphoniums have a wider bore and a deeper more mellow tone than that of a baritone.
Gosh..it's like saying a silver piccolo is the same a wooden one. Def not the case. Sorry, but you have been mislead and I had to let you know. You have been educated, do not be angry. ;]

Finally someone who understands. I've played both and everyone's always like, "how can you play both, they're the same". Grr.

I loooove my Euphonium and Baritone! I just love playing jazz songs on the baritone because of the first valve thumb slide.... Slide that beast in and out for some awesome note slurs, like a trombone, but with better innotation!
But you just cant beat the Fourth valve on the Euphonium.... I will stomp you all when it comes to playing low.... Who where can hit a low low F or a B flat, IN TUNE WITH A STROBE TUNER..... Once you can do it.... we'll talk wink
But Still..... Any Euphonium/Baritone player is my friend!!!!

Um I can hit double pedals. With a Baritone or Euphonium. And Baritone isn't really a jazz instrument either...

I see. Thank you for the correction with the Baritone/Euphonium mixup. I play Baritone T.C. and I can hit a VERY LOW note. I cannot for the life of me think of the name of the note but I did hit it many times. It is not that hard really.
Wolflovingirl - I don't use marching Baritone. My teacher just has us play out concert instruments. Quite easy really.
