I do, too, because I've always heard it called "baritone horn", not
"baritone."

This whole thread is wildly off-topic, and I apologize for extending
its lifetime even a little bit. Getting back to clarinets, I just
heard a new Seattle group, the Christos Govetas Ensemble, playing
Greek folk-dance music. Mr. Govetas plays wonderfully soulful
clarinet.
