Odyssey Premiere Baritone Horn W/case - Dw M/p

The Baritone Horn is a¯ low-pitched, valved brass instrument in Bb (one octave below the Bb trumpet), sounding similar to a trombone and most commonly played in brass bands.¯ Its tonal range is the same as a Baritone singing voice, typically emulating the depth and resonance of great operatic male arias. 

It is lower pitched than the tenor horn and there are two of them in a brass band. Usually they play accompaniment parts but sometimes they take a melodic role. It is pitched the same as the euphonium but its bore is narrower, meaning it doesn't sound quite as mellow. 

All models in the Odyssey range of high quality brass band and orchestral instruments have been meticulously designed down to the finest details by Peter Pollard. It™s hardly surprising that, with over 50 years experience and having listened to the wants™ of countless high profile musicians, this master craftsman is one of the most sought after custom brass and woodwind builders in the world.
