How do the sousaphone work?

The sousaphone is a brass instrument and a type of tuba that is designed to be easier to carry and play than a traditional tuba. It produces sound by the vibration of the player's lips into the mouthpiece, which creates sound waves that resonate through the instrument's tubing, ultimately amplifying the sound. The bell of the sousaphone is facing forward and upwards, allowing the sound to project outwards and upwards, making it ideal for marching bands.
