Default long, bent, tapered tube -- how to?

I must make a very smooth, cosmetically impeccible brass tube that tapers
uniformly from 1" i.d. to 5/8" i.d. over a length of about 16". Lack of a
visible seam would be a plus.

It must be bent in three non-planar curves, none exceeding 45 degrees of
bend.

Anybody got any favorite methods?

Thanks,
Lloyd
