It is well documented that the equipment typically preferred for that unique bright and focused sound comes from but is not limited to horns like the Conn Constellation 38B,and the Kanstul 990, 991.

Oddly enough, I don't feel like my 991 has an overtly bright or focused sound, although all of our conceptions of such adjectives are different. It's very powerful and efficient, true, but on an 'ordinary' C cup I don't think it is notably brighter than my Bach 72 bell. With a commercial / lead mouthpiece it can be very cutting, but OTOH with a B cup or deep V the sound is quite dark and diffused.

That fine trumpeter on the recording sounds like his influences were Harry James and Herb Alpert, shifting in style between the two. I mean that as a compliment.

I'm not versed enough to compare, but that's certainly a high compliment. |
