Just picked up a new horn from a client that comes into my shop. I have never seen this configuration of Euphonium before. I contacted another collector friend who managed to pull a catalog image for me. Thought I would share!

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Very interesting! I've never seen a configuration like that before!

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.

Like a four piston horn.
Only you can set the height of the fourth valve to suit you little finger...

Some of the American civil war euphonium are configured like that - neat!
