Where does the sound come out of a trumpet?

The way that the saxophone makes a noise is when the player puts their mouth on the mouthpiece, and the reed vibrates, sending waves of air through the saxophone, making a sound. The different pitches of the saxophone, or the different notes are determined when the saxophone player presses down fingering, therefor making the instrument shorter or longer. The way that the trumpet makes a noise is pretty much the same as the saxophone, only the players lips vibrate against the mouthpiece, instead of the reed. The trumpet player goes though different notes by moving the 3 valves, and loosening or tightening their lips. By pressing down the valves, the trumpet player makes different pathways throughout the trumpet. To make a higher sound, you have to tighten your lips, and to go lower, you have to loosen your lips.
