Band instrument. In concert band, it looks something like a smaller version of the tuba. Only slightly different than the euphonium (a baritone has more cylindrical tubing while a euphonium's tubing is more conical in shape.) In marching band, it resembles a "trumpet on steroids." Great instrument, often played by very interesting people. Urban Dictionary

The sexiest of the male voicings within the realm of choral music. It is just above the Bass range. Abbreviated- Bari Urban Dictionary

The medium male singing voice in opera and non-classical music (although in choir, baritones must either choose the tenor or bass part). Baritones in opera have a range from G2 (the second G below middle C) to G4 (above middle C). This is the most common male voice type. Sitting between the tenor and bass, the baritone typically plays supporting roles (fathers, older men, servants, friends of the hero) as well as the villain: corrupt legal authorities, evil prison wardens, and other nasty characters. Often teamed with the mezzo-soprano. Many pop singers and Broadway singers are baritones, although the vocal categories used in opera are not applied to them. Examples include Robert Goulet, Elvis Presley, Mark Salling, Michael Buble, Bruce Springsteen, Jim Morrison, Ringo Starr, Eddie Vedder, John Cougar Mellencamp, David Lee Roth, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Neil Diamond, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Johnny Cash, Tim Curry, Philip Quast, and Leonard Cohen Urban Dictionary

The bastard spawn of the tuba and trombone. Urban Dictionary

A third-world country that borders Kenya. It has a rich history of unkown-ness, and the few who do know about it discriminate Baritone's people. They have faced many hardships, including famine, drought, slow internet, and date rape. Baritone's main export is terrible sounds, test tube babies, and crystal meth. Baritone is overall a rich, diverse country that is only accessible to those who know how to play a double-octave Bflat concert scale perfectly. You must then hop on a motorcycle, DRIVE across the Atlantic Ocean to the Cape of Good Hope, and then meet a Mexican dwarf named Tyler. He will then dig you an underground tunnel right into the heart of the glorious country of Baritone. You may leave Baritone any time by just saying the words, "I know what a Baritone is!" You will then arrive on your NEIGHBORS doorstep. Urban Dictionary

Utility mod for Minecraft that automates tasks. It can mine, farm and go from point A to point B as efficiently as possible amongst other things. Urban Dictionary

Someone with a big-ass range in their voice. Urban Dictionary

Male voice part higher than the bass and lower than the tenor. For many years thought to derive from "Baron of Tone", that being a good and nobel thing. Later historical investigation concludes that the true derivation is from "Barren of Tone" circa 1937 Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America (That's right, SPEBQSA) notes that those compelled to sing the "Baritone Line" are strangely attracted to do so by the absence of melodic interest and frequent awkward intervals. Urban Dictionary

Medium-sized brass instrument, mainly recognizable by the fact that it is NOT an euphonium. The baritone is its smaller brother - and naming it as such is astonishingly silly, as the baritone sounds like a digimon on acid if played to high. Some brittish people are known to make them sound decent, though. May or may not have four valves. Urban Dictionary

The silly, loud, perverted, and just plain creepy section of a marching band; it's basically an oversized bass clef trumpet. P.S. it's not the same thing as a mellophone Urban Dictionary
