From the early-mid-19th century, as valves were invented and built into horns. Before valves were built into brass instruments, many types and forms of horns or bugles existed. The birth of the flugelhorn happened at the same time when valves were invented at the beginning of the 19th century. In contrast, the flugelhorn’s conical bore gradually increases in size down the length of the tubing. The trumpet’s bore is cylindrical, with a consistent diameter throughout the instrument. The flugelhorn has a conical tubing and a larger bell, producing a warmer, darker, and less direct focused sound. They both have 3 or 4 valves and use the same fingering for the same notes.
However, the trumpet and flugelhorn are both tuned to Bb. However, it has enough differences to be treated as a substantive instrument.
The flugelhorn is a brasswind instrument, which shows many similarities with the trumpet. How to Find the Best Fugelhorns - May 27, 2022.
