How Brass Instruments Work. Brass instruments are any tube that can be played with the lips. They're not always brass, as instruments like the Aborigine digeridoo, and the conch shell, are made of wood, and shell, respectively. However, most modern brass instruments have a long, cone-shaped tube and flaring bell.

The notes that come out of the bell shaped end are produced when the air column within vibrates.t is the highest pitched of the brass instruments. Normally two or three are used in a symphonic orchestra for that reason. The tone of the tuba is much deeper than the trumpet due to the large size of the instrument and its tubing system.
