What is the name of this brass instrument?

Trumpet
A trumpet is a brass instrument played by blowing air through it while pressing valves to change the notes!

A trumpet is the shiny brass instrument played by blowing air through pursed lips into a mouthpiece while pressing three valves to change the notes. Pressing different combinations of those valves reroutes the air through extra lengths of tubing, which changes the pitch of the sound that comes out.

A flute is played by blowing across a hole rather than through valves, and a cello is a string instrument played with a bow, so neither one matches an instrument with valves that you blow directly into.

Skilled trumpet players also change pitch by adjusting their lip tension and breath alone, which is how they can play many different notes even using just three valves in different combinations.
