Fluegelhorns have also been made in such other various keys as C, F, G and A. The E flat soprano and B flat alto instruments are configured in the same manner as the modern trumpet, whilst the tenor and bass instruments were configured like Saxhorns.

Fluegelhorns in the past have been made from a number of unlikely materials, including wood, clay and ceramic.
