thinking out loud here..., being a sax player, I know higher notes are only possible when I blow harder, even though a low note can also be loud, actual note determined by finger positions, blowing harder can produce the same note, but one octave higher (not in all cases)..... Fingering determines note, blowing forcefully will often cause an octave jump, but in the same note... This is even more squewed with a 3 buttoned trumpet, where strength of blowing is more important to note determination, considering that different notes have same fingering, blowing harder or softer determines note in more situations than that of the sax...

Someone help me fill in those previously mentioned classes!!
