How to draw a bugle

in Drawings
I want to draw objects which have a lot in common with the bugle I've attached:
If it was straight instead of wound, it would be easy: Create a spline, and rotate the spline around an axis. This would result in a large,,straight tube (which could be used to make music, too)
But then this tube should be bended along a given 3D-spline.
How could I do this? Is there a way to bend some part along a curve?
Or is there some better way to draw a bent tube?
