Best Answer

There are far too many things to name them all, and also it depends upon your definition of high pitched. Generally, something that is vibrating at a fast rate will cause a high pitched sound, such as the reed of a Clarinet. The faster it vibrates as air is blown into the instrument, the higher pitched noise it will emit.

The particles that vibrate perpendicular to direction of sound produces high frequency sounds.
