The pitch can be changed by tightening or loosening the lips (embouchure), depressing a valve or valves and by moving tuning slides.

The pitch can also be affected by temperature and by the density of the gas being blown through it. Try playing a Trumpet with a lungful of helium.

A concert F on a trumpet is the G note. Since a trumpet is pitched in Bb, trumpet players will always play one note above the concert pitch. Along with that trumpet players will always play in a different key from the concert pitch.
