These are brass instruments. Trumpets, French Horn, Trombone, Tuba (in the middle). Tuba has the lowest pitch. Get used to the sound. Oh, and this is a brass quintet (5 brass instruments).
Brass instruments might use a mute to change the sound. Watch this to see how they work, and how the sound (or timbre) is different.
