What creates a higher pitched note in a brass instrument?
A
less air vibrating inside the instrument
B
more air vibrating inside the instrument
C
warmer air inside the instrument
D
cooler air inside the instrument
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Sound on a brass instrument comes from a vibrating column of air inside the instrument. The player makes this column of air vibrate by buzzing the lips while blowing air through a cup or funnel shaped mouthpiece. To produce higher or lower pitches, the player adjusts the opening between his/her lips.

Detailed explanation-2: -Brass instruments (trumpet, trombone)-Air is blown into the instrument by ‘buzzing’ lips across the cup-shaped mouthpiece, producing a vibration and sound through the instrument. Different notes are produced by changing the length of the instrument or the size of the bell-shaped end.

Detailed explanation-3: -The tuba is the largest and lowest-pitched musical instrument in the brass family. Like all brass instruments, sound is produced by moving air past the lips, causing them to vibrate or “buzz” into a large cupped mouthpiece.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sound is produced in a flute due to the vibration of air column.
