snare drum, timpani, cymbals, bass drum
I think, for standard orchestra instruments,
For woodwinds,
The highest is Flute(without piccolo)
Followed by Oboe, then Clarinet.
For brass,
The highest is Trumpet,
Followed by French Horn, Trombone and finally Tuba.
For string,
The highest is Violin,
Followed by Viola, Cello and then Double Bass.
I hope this answers your question..
Overall, flute is the highest among the 3 families excluding piccolo
from lowest to highest: contrabassoon, Bass Clarinet, bassoon, clarinet, English horn(cor anglais), Oboe, Flute, then piccolo.

actually, there are some i see missing:
saxes: soprano, by clarinet; alto, by bassoon; tenor, by bass clarinet; contrabass sax, by contrabassoon
clarinets: contrabass clarinet, before, contrabassoon; subcontrabass clarinet, before contrabass clarinet: the subcontrabass (or octocontrabass) clarinet only had one copy ever made. it could reach as low as B♭-1, whereas the piano's lowest note is B♭. *** surprisingly, there is one more clarinet that goes even lower that the octocontrabass. the "octocontralto" clarinet
From highest to lowest, the woodwinds are:
Piccolo
Flute
C clarinet
B♭ clarinet
A clarinet
Oboe
Alto clarinet
Bass clarinet
Bassoon
Bass Saxophone
Of course there are other woodwinds that fit into this range but these are the most common ones in my experience.
bass drum blah!
piccolo
The bass has the lowest pitch of these instruments, followed by the 'cello and then the viola.
If all the holes are open, that will produce the highest sound.
It depends how you mean:If you mean when the instrument is playing a concert pitch A then some sound the same as other and would be in groups:Piccolo,Flute, clarinet and oboeBassoonIf you mean their pitch range for their highest note:Piccolo,Flute,Oboe,Clarinet,BassoonPitch for their lowest note:Piccolo,Flute,Oboe,Clarinet,Bassoon(this is only using the most simple of woodwind instruments)
There's a small trumpet called a piccolo trumpet which sounds one octave higher than a regular trumpet, and nearly always has four valves to aid in fast fingering. One is used for the famous song Penny Lane by the Beatles. It has a great ability to sound clear and bright above the midrange instruments and voices. If there's any other brass instrument that's even higher in range, it's something rare, experimental or a novelty.
The tuba. This large brass member is pitched incredibly low, and is the lowest pitched brass instrument.
The trumpet is the highest member of the brass family of instruments.
The bass has the lowest pitch of these instruments, followed by the 'cello and then the viola.
-- The highest frequency of sound audible to the human ear is of the order of 20,000 Hz.-- The lowest frequency of light visible to the human eye is of the order of 375,000,000,000,000 Hz.

The lowest frequency of visible light ... assume wavelength = 750 nm ...is around 400,000 GHz.The highest frequency of audible sound is around 20 KHz.So the smallest ratio ... lowest frequency of light to highest frequency of sound ...is 4 x 1014/2 x 104 = 20 billion .
Violin is the highest piched with it's E sting. It' strings from highest to lowest are: E, A, D, & G. The Viola is second highest with A, D, G, & C. The Cello has the same string set, with a slightly lower pitch. The lowest is the Bass, wich strings I THINK are G, D, A, & E.
Acoustic instruments such as the double bass, contrabassoon, tuba, contrabass clarinet, sub-contrabass saxophone, etc. generally have the lowest ranges. A grand piano has the largest range of all acoustic instruments (more than eight octaves), and can produce the same notes of most other acoustic instruments. Electronic instruments (i.e. synthesizers) can produce any pitch programmed into them, so, technically, they are able to produce the lowest frequency sounds.
the instrument with the highest sound is the piccolo. The piccolo is basically a miniature Flute, and it has all the same fingerings (what you do with your fingers to make the notes), except you have to make a tighter embrasure (how you purse your lips), and it sounds an octave (eight notes) higher.
