flugelhorn

Valved brass instrument of the bugle type. It is made in three sizes: soprano, alto, and tenor, and is used in military and brass bands. In Britain only the alto instrument, in B flat, is used, normally only in brass bands. The alto flugelhorn has a similar range to the cornet but is of mellower tone.
