Mellophone fingerings are the same as the trumpet. [3] It is typically pitched lower, in the key of F or E ♭. The overtone series of the F mellophone is an octave above that of the F horn.

Two instruments are called a mellophone. The first is an instrument shaped somewhat like a horn, in that it is formed in a circle.

The mellophone bugle was first instroduced in the mid 1960s. These instruments were based on the design of the Conn Mellophonium as used by the Stan Kenton Orchestra. Eventually the wrap of the mellophone was compacted more into a soprano shape, with accommodations made for the much larger bell.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow noted "This is one of the finer recordings by the Mellophonium Band, arguably Stan Kenton's last great orchestra. With the use of 20 horns, Roland was able to get a surprising amount of variety out of the material, making this a Kenton recording well worth investigating". [4]
