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 Saxophone

Tenor Saxophone

Alto clarinet

Bass clarinet

Baritone Saxophone

Bassoon

Bass Saxophone

Of course there are other woodwinds that fit into this range but these are the most common ones in my experience.

Highest and lowest sounding brass 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.

Which instrument makes sound with the lowest frequencies?

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.


Which instruments has the highest sound?

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.
