What is the difference between a mellophone and a marching baritone?

Marching baritones are a bit heavier and the mouth pieces are much bigger than a mellohone. Some people sometimes refer to the mellophone as a marching french horn because they are so much alike.

What is the difference between alto and baritone?
Alto and baritone saxes are both pitched in Eb, but the baritone sounds an octave lower than the alto. Playing a written C on an alto produces the sound of the Eb below the written note. On a baritone, the note that sounds is the Eb in the next lower octave. To make that happen, the air column for any given note is twice as long on the baritone as on the alto, and the instrument is correspondingly larger. the mouthpiece and reed are also much larger on the baritone. Finally, many baritones are keyed to a low A, while most altos are only keyed to a low Bb

Should you play baritone or french horn?
It actually depends on what your playing them in i.e. a Brass band or an orchestra. Most marching/brass bands use the tenor horn, baritone and euphonium as the mid octave voice. Orchestras use the french horn because of its smooth versatile tone and range. The valve configuration between the French horn and the baritone is different. The baritone, Tuba, cornet, trumpet etc all use the same valve/finger configuration. So really the decision is down to where you see yourself playing in the future. Remember most good brass players are able to switch between similar instruments (i.e. those with a similar size mouth piece ) easily
