Huh!  I should learn to read!  You said trumpet mouthpiece - perhaps someone crafted a 
different lead pipe onto it to make it really strange.  But with the trombone length, 
it was probably originally a drum corps baritone.

Hiya,

Since we're on the topic, one of my students came by with a horn and  
asked me if I could tell him what it is.

It's a Ludwig. It has a trumpet mouthpiece, but it is the length and  
bore of a trombone, with what appears to be a trombone bell. The  
configuration is generally like a trumpet, but it has one piston  
valve operated by one hand and a rotary valve operated by the other.

Any ideas?
