The band has 2 euphoniums and 2 baritones. The euphonium is the 2nd most used solo position following the principal cornet. The solo euphonium is supported by the 2nd euphonium and baritones and the player often plays duets with the principal cornet. The baritones often work with the trombones and horns. They are also used alongside the Euphoniums for counter-melody.
