The tuning and material of a Trumpet can affect the notes created but their popularity often stems from when they were 'invented'. The tuning can also relate to the type of music to be played and the other instruments it will be with.

Bb Trumpet - Currently most common trumpet - used in bands and jazz ensembles. It produces a warm tone and is recommended for beginners.

C Trumpet - Commonly used in orchestras due to its brighter sound (brighter than Bb) matching well with strings and high woodwind.

D Trumpet - Popular in 19th century but was later replaced by the Bb trumpet. Much Baroque music is written for D trumpet.

Eb Trumpet - Not commonly used; Haydn however wrote the majority of his concerto for Eb.

E Trumpet - Not commonly used; Hummel's concertos are often still written for E trumpet.

F Trumpet - Popular at time of creation but replaced by the Bb trumpet.

Who invented the transposing trumpet?

The earliest trumpets date back to 1500 BCE and earlier. The bronze and silver trumpets from Tutankhamun's grave in Egypt, bronze lurs from Scandinavia, and metal trumpets from China date back to this period.[2] Trumpets from the Oxus civilization (3rd millennium BCE) of Central Asia have decorated swellings in the middle, yet are made out of one sheet of metal, which is considered a technical wonder.[3] The Moche people of ancient Peru depicted trumpets in their art going back to 300 CE.[4] The earliest trumpets were signaling instruments used for military or religious purposes, rather than music in the modern sense;[5] and the modern buglecontinues this signaling tradition.
