This can be done by changing the position of frets on a string instrument, adjusting the length of a wind instrument, or changing the tension on a drum skin.

Difference between tuning string instruments and tuning wind instruments?

The difference between tuning string instruments and wind instruments is that with string instruments, you must adjust the tension of the strings in order to tune/change the pitch. With wind instruments (most of the time), you have to pull a part of the instrument either in or out to change the pitch/tune (pulling it out would make the pitch lower, and pushing it in would make the pitch higher). For example, with a trombone, there is a tuning slide at the top that you can pull or push out. If you had a saxophone, you would have to pull out or push in on the mouthpiece. If you had a guitar (string instrument), however, there are tuning keys that you can turn to adjust the tension of the strings.
