Re: just out of curiosity



Strictly speaking, the euphonium and the tuba are closely related low brass
instruments. They are quite similar in appearance but differ in size (and
musical range as a result). There is, however, the infamous double-belled
euphonium ("I'm NOT making this up, you know!") and none of these should be
confused with the allied (it's a low brass instrument) but decidedly
different eponymous Sousaphone. One holds a tuba or euphonium, but "wear" a
Sousaphone...

Ask me how I know? My younger brother is a sometime member of a group of
Sousaphone, tuba, and euphonium players.

But my question is: What hath this to do with Archives? (Sorry, couldn't
resist...the whole thread of answers shoudl have been offline if we were to
follow our new Guidelines!)

Just what is the International Tuba-Euphonium Association?
