When I was an undergraduate I played bari-sax in the Fresno State marching
band. My roomate (Tom Bingham -now director of bands at University of
Hawaii) played Sousaphone in the band. We discovered that with enough tape
around the Sousaphone lead pipe a bari-sax mouthpiece fit very well.

The sound was what I would imagine a teradactyl
might emit in it's dying moments. Ah, how Gin and 7-up can fire the genius
of youth.
