trumpet music
Normally a Bb trumpet would be considered the highest pitched but really it's a piccolo trumpet. A small trumpet with four valves
Trumpet its the The piccolo trumpet normally in B♭ It is, however, rarely written for specifically; it is often just used at the player's discretion to cover high material as appropriate as is the soprano trumpet normally in D
from my understanding it is that distincted metallic sound it has that defines and accents almost every note Trumpet... CEL
The smallest band instruments are the piccolo, the piccolo Trumpet, the Soprano Saxophone, flute, cornet, Clarinet... i think that's it. I might have missed a few. These are in no particular order.
The highest pitched brass instrument is the Piccolo Trumpet. The next highest would be the soprano cornet and the soprano trumpet.
The slide trumpet is older and less common, whereas the soprano trombone is more commonly found.

There is no other instrument other than the Trombone with a slide. There are variations of the trombone though. For example, there is a trombone made with a slide and valves. There are also different types of trombones. There is the bass trombone, tenor trombone, alto trombone, soprano trombone (slide Trumpet), and piccolo trombone. (Please note that the soprano trombone, or slide trumpet, does not have valves. It is also called a slide trumpet because it has the same exact range, sounds like a trumpet, and uses a trumpet mouth piece.) There has also been plastic, wooden, and metal trombones made. I hope that this helped!

It's (generally) made Brass. Even the silver ones are mostly Brass with a thin plating on them. It can be described as being a "Brasswind", or just a "Wind instrument".
