What is a compensating euphonium?

A compensating euphonium includes extra tubing. This "compensates" for the tendency of the sharp low register. By depressing the fourth valve, air is redirected through an auxiliary set of slides on valves 1 through 3, when they're used. These slides lower the pitch even more, so the lower notes become closer in tune.

What are the notes for euphonium?

The differing fingerings for certain lower-register notes on compensating versus non-compensating instruments are clearly indicated.

What does the Fourth valve do on a euphonium?

The fourth valve (positioned on the side of the instrument), in addition to the extra tubing makes it possible to play chromatic notes between the first and second partials. It also makes for much better intonation overall.
