Valves are used to change the amount of tubing that air has to travel through in the Trumpet, which changes the pitch of the sound coming out.

Because notes on the trumpet are more dependant on embouchure shape and amount of air than resistance from valves or keys being pressed down.

What is the number of valves on a trumpet?

There are several types of trumpet; the most common is a transposing instrument pitched in B♭ with a tubing length of about 148 cm.

Each valve increases the length of tubing when engaged, thereby lowering the pitch. The trumpet is used in many forms of music, including classical music and jazz.
