BUT how does one explain the lowering of pitch thru the ages (or part thereof)?

e.g. My first tuba was an old "high-pitched" Boosey and Co single Eb that had been converted to lower/regular pitch (by way of addition to the tuning slide). Why did bands have this higher pitch then change? Yet orchestras were/are doing the opposite?
