Best Answer

The euphonium is also known as the tenor tuba, baryton(Ger.), basse à pistons(Fr.), and sometimes mistakenly referred to as a baritone horn or just a baritone. The baritone horn, however, is a cylindrical bore instrument with a brighter tone (closer to Trombone timbre) than a euphonium. The bore of the baritone is often much smaller than that of the euphonium. The euphonium is a conical bore (gets larger is we reach the end) instrument with a warmer and darker tone than a baritone.
