Most cornetts are shaped with gradual curve, greater than 90°, a single curve like a comma, or an S-curve. The instrument has a conical bore, and the outside shaped to have an octagonal cross-section. Curved cornets were traditionally black, the wood covered in thin black leather.
The cornet (/ ˈ k ɔːr n ɪ t /, [1] US: / k ɔːr ˈ n ɛ t /) is a brass instrument similar to the trumpet but distinguished from it by its conical bore, more compact shape, and mellower tone quality. The most common cornet is a transposing instrument in B ♭. There is also a soprano cornet in E ♭ and cornets in A and C.
The Gaussian function is the archetypal example of a bell shaped function. A bell-shaped function or simply 'bell curve' is a mathematical function having a characteristic "bell"-shaped curve. These functions are typically continuous or smooth, asymptotically approach zero for large negative/positive x, and have a single, unimodal maximum at ...
Arban’s complete celebrated method for the cornet or E♭ alto, B♭ tenor, baritone, euphonium and B♭ bass in treble clef Subtitle newly revised and edited by Edwin Franko Goldman
High brass - from the top left: Baroque trumpet in D, modern trumpets in B ♭ and D (same pitch D as Baroque), piccolo trumpet in high B ♭, Flugelhorn in B ♭; right: cornet in B ♭. The pitch of a brass instrument corresponds to the lowest playable resonance frequency of the open instrument. The combined resonances resemble a harmonic ...
A normal distribution is sometimes informally called a bell curve. [8] However, many other distributions are bell-shaped (such as the Cauchy , Student's t , and logistic distributions). (For other names, see Naming .)

Detachable mouthpieces from a regular cornett, and the integrated mouthpiece of a mute cornett. Unlike the regular curved cornett, cornettino and tenor cornett, the mute cornett is made from a single piece of wood that has been turned on a lathe, bored out and given finger holes.
