While modern trumpets have three piston or rotary valves, early trumpets had none. The purpose of the valves is to lengthen the tubing when engaged, allowing a lower pitch. By adding lengths of tubing to the trumpet, each valve performs a different function. The first valve lowers the pitch by two semitones, while the second and third lower it by a semitone and three semitones, respectively. When up, the trumpet valve allows air to pass straight through, but when pressed, a section of tubing is opened. In order to take full advantage of the sounds that can be produced, the valves play a key role.
