A Crash Course in the Euphonium
by Justin Lai
(my YAMAHA YEP-321 euphonium, public property)
What do you do with a list of baritone players' phone numbers?..........You phoney-um! (thanks to Stacy Spaller, a classic)
This site has started off on the wrong note, or rather, an ugly tone. Just kidding. You have arrived at this website somehow and you ask yourself, "what is this euphonium thing this kid is talking about? Did I incorrectly type something in the search engine? Why did he do this for his website?" You will soon find out. Don't worry; I will not bore you.
Also, you were able to reach my site. Yay! Why is this an accomplishemnt you asked? It seems that many of my friends with parental restrictions were unable to view my site. Don't ask me why...
Purpose
The purpose of this website is to inform the reader about the history of the euphonium and the characteristics of the modern day version of the instrument.
Are you ready for this? Sit back, relax, and buckle your seatbelts. You are in for a ride as I attempt to scale this challenge in giving you the basics of this instrument......

For Fun Site (it has nothing to do with the purpose of the website)
woohoo! I received enough funds to begin to put graphics and such...this website is actually considered "done"...I just think that under construction sign is cool...you can tell also, with it's colloquialness and care free and stream of consciousness style, it is NOT the final product...wait, actually, I think this will be the final product...I hope I havent lost you yet...
