The Euphonium or 'Tenor Tuba' (pictured right - read Tuba Section) is similar to the Baritone Horn (pictured left - read Horn Section), but has a narrower bore, both instruments have a gradually widening tube of brass folded round on itself to save space.
The sound comes out of the flared bell, and is made by blowing a "raspberry" with your lips into the cup-shaped mouthpiece. You can make a number of different notes by varying the tension of your lips and pressing different combinations of valves which divert the air through little extra lengths of tubing.
