So I have to wonder why the word "Euphonium" is used instead of  
Calliophone or Callonium except maybe that sounds too much like  
Calliope, which often is NOT a beautiful sound except to Calliope  
Fans (If you ever woke up with a hangover in the French Quarter and  
heard the daily "calliope concert" from the riverboat you know what I  
mean... ;-)

So anyway - a web search reveals: The Tangley Calliaphone  http://
