What's a brass instrument rarely heard in orchestra, but common in concert band? The euphonium! It looks like a small tuba, and it is known for an open, mellow sound that you can hear in the euphonium solo in Gustav Holst’s Second Suite for Military Band this morning on 91.1, 107.5, and our music stream.
From WSHU's daytime and evening classical programs, Emily Boyer and Lauren Rico give you a heads-up on some of the best music they'll be sharing with you.
