What is a "trumpet"?

A trumpet is a brass instrument with a long, slender metal tube that is bent into a compact shape and ends in a flared bell. It is played by blowing air through a small mouthpiece and pressing three valves to change the pitch. The trumpet is known for its bright, powerful sound and is used in various musical genres, including classical, jazz, and pop. It can play both high and low notes with precision and is often used for its clear, strong tones in solos and ensemble performances.
