About the trumpet

The trumpet is the highest pitched instrument in the brass family. It is also amongst the oldest, with early examples dating back to at least 1500BC. There are several types of trumpet and the most commonly encountered is the Bb transposing version. Modern instruments generally have 3 piston valves. Each valve increases the length of tubing when engaged, thus lowering the pitch.
