See my post below. You might record the group with the horn doing it both ways...bell out and bell back, and see which sound you prefer. You probably should record and listen for any possible setup; I've seen the same setup sound awful in one hall and great in another, based on the shape (one was a church) and acoustics of the stage/hall.

Also, although you want the audience to hear every instrument well, if the players can't hear each other well, the audience isn't going to like what they hear nearly as much as they would if all the players can hear each other.
