Acoustically the pipe bent in a circle functions as essentially a straight pipe, the virtue of twisting it is to allow the horn to be longer without needing it to be a silly impractically long musical instrument. A cat will already have trouble carrying around a brass instrument that size in the first place, imagine if it was a straight horn? No way a cat is gonna lug that around in your cat marching band.
Thank you for answering them, I had absolutely no idea and was gonna have to research it
Good luck with putting together your meow-rching band!
