Trumpets that are made in different keys allow for easier transposition. For example, if the piece that you are reading is in "E" and you are playing a Bb Trumpet, you would have to transpose all of the notes up a tri-tone, which can be pretty difficult. If you are playing a C trumpet, you would only have to transpose up a major third, which can be much easier.

What is a transposing instrument?
A transposing instrument is a musical instrument that sounds different from the written pitch in the sheet music. When a musician plays a note on a transposing instrument, the pitch heard is not the same as the pitch notated; for example, a B-flat trumpet sounds a concert pitch a whole step lower than written. This requires musicians to transpose music to match the concert pitch used by other instruments. Common transposing instruments include the clarinet, trumpet, and saxophone.
Can a trumpet be tuned?
It depends on what you mean. If you mean, is the trumpet a transposing instrument, yes, if you're talking about anything other than a C trumpet, which is in concert pitch. Trumpets in all other keys are not concert pitch. For instance, when playing on a B-flat trumpet, the note that you learn as a D is actually a concert pitch of C. If you are asking do trumpet players have to transpose music, the answer is, yes, generally speaking, but it depends what music you are playing. For instance, if you are playing on a B-flat trumpet and playing music written for the B-flat trumpet, you play the music as is. If you are playing on a B-flat trumpet but playing music written for C trumpet, you have to play the music up a step.

The trumpet is in B flat because it is a transposing instrument. This means that when a trumpet player plays a written C, the sound produced is actually a concert B flat. This transposition makes it easier for trumpet players to read music written for their instrument.

What song does the people on base play with the trumpet?
I'm not sure what your question was... so I'll assume you're asking about the way to properly transpose Bass music (again, string bass, or what?). Bass is a C, non-transposing instrument, and trumpet is a Bb transposing instrument in a higher clef, so you'll need to start on the note written for bass, write it one or two octaves higher to the same note in the treble clef, and then move it up two half steps for the trumpet to play the same sounding note as the bass. (obviously a few octaves higher) Did this help?
