Shorter wavelengths give rise to higher pitches.

However, pitch isn't so black and white. It includes many other variables such as the individual, overtones, volume and the audible perceptions they give rise to. To get a fuller understanding of pitch, it would be best to ask a serious musician.

Why is early morning sunrise orange in color?

You mean as opposed to those late afternoon sunrises? Sunrises and sunsets are shifted towards the red end of the spectrum because the atmosphere scatters shorter wavelengths more effectively. Because of the angle, light at sunrise and sunset is going through a thicker "slice" of the atmosphere, and the shorter wavelengths get scattered out, while the longer reds and oranges make it through.
