The highest frequency the human ear can percieve is 20,000Hz (20KHz), however most Musical Instruments can only hit C8 (which is approximately 4,400Hz). The standard Organ can reach this note, however Synthesizers can, in theory, produce notes above the range of human hearing.

It should also be remembered that 'instruments' such as a dog-whistle can produce notes above the range of human hearing.

Most instruments "can" make high notes. Most stringed instruments can go into a very high range. The piccolo is also capable of playing high notes.
