Best Answer

The highest note written for any instrument in the symphonic repertoire is a Db, just over four octaves above Middle C, for a piccolo in Mahler's second symphony. Few piccolists actually manage to produce the note. A violin can, in extreme conditions and using special techniques, reach notes that are higher still, but it is still impractical for any performance purposes. Any modern day synthesizer can electronically produce pitches above and beyond the average human hearing limit of 20,000 Hertz.

One that is capable of very high pitched sounds is the highest notes of the Pipe Organ. The piccolo is the highest wind instrument; small triangles and the highest notes of the orchestra bells & glockenspiel are very high percussion sounds, but synthesizers and the theremin can probably make the highest usable pitches.
