| I can't speak about Connstellation trumpets, but I have a 1972 Connstellation Cornet that absolutely roars. At some point in the past the bell had been damaged and replaced with a copper bell. So what you end up with is a horn that can wail in the upper register, but can bark or be smokey in the mid- and lower registers, almost flugel-like.
Cornets rule.
