The flugelhorn was originally an army instrument (used to summon the flanks of an army), but this trumpet-like instrument has made the occasional appearance in classical music, notably in orchestral works by Vaughan Williams, Stravinsky and Tippett. Concertos are rare - I could only find one by Daron Hagen. It is played by Vern Sielert with the Baylor University Wind Ensemble under Michael Haithcock on Arsis.
