  2. Flugelhorn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flugelhorn

    The flugelhorn's mouthpiece is more deeply conical than either trumpet or cornet mouthpieces, but not as conical as a French horn mouthpiece. Some modern flugelhorns feature a fourth valve that lowers the pitch by a perfect fourth (similar to the fourth valve on some euphoniums , tubas , and piccolo trumpets , or the trigger on trombones ).

    Sure, all the dimensions of most trumpet, cornet, and flugelhorn mouthpieces are about the same size, so I guess the sentence is true. But even if you know the size of a cornet mouthpiece shank, you learn little. Flugelhorn mouthpiece shanks vary in their dimensions to an extent that is painful for anyone trying to choose a mouthpiece.

  4. Mellophone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellophone

    This mouthpiece usually has a deep cup, like that of the flugelhorn, and has a wider inner diameter than a trumpet mouthpiece. These mouthpieces give the mellophone a dark, round sound. Some trumpet players who double on mellophone use a trumpet-style parabolic ("cup") mouthpiece on the instrument, resulting in a much brighter, more trumpet ...

    Brass instruments may also be characterised by two generalizations about geometry of the bore, that is, the tubing between the mouthpiece and the flaring of the tubing into the bell. Those two generalizations are with regard to the degree of taper or conicity of the bore and; the diameter of the bore with respect to its length.

  6. Flumpet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flumpet

    The mouthpiece is deeply conical which tapers slightly, as opposed to the trumpet mouthpiece which has an extreme taper to create a bowl shape. The sound of the Flumpet is described as thicker and richer than a flugelhorn and more mellow and rounded than that of a trumpet.

  7. Horn (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_(instrument)

    Mouthpiece adapters are available so that a horn mouthpiece can fit into the mellophone lead pipe, but this does not compensate for the many differences that a horn player must adapt to. The bore is generally cylindrical as opposed to the more conical horn; thus, the "feel" of the mellophone can be foreign to a horn player.

  8. Tenor horn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenor_horn

    It has a bore that is mostly conical, like the flugelhorn and euphonium, [2] and normally uses a deep, cornet-like mouthpiece. It is most commonly used in British brass bands, and Mexican banda music whereas the French horn tends to take the corresponding parts in concert bands and orchestras. However, the tenor horn has occasionally been used ...
