Just what Emilie said..
for Example to get the pitch A in a string instrument you must make the string vibrate 440 times/second... if you get anything to vibrate at that speed it will make a sound and that sound will be in the pitch corresponding to that of A.
Because different instruments have different tone of color, also known as timbre their sounds will be diferent. Just like you can recognize a flute from a saxophone, this is because of the timbre. But both these instruments are able to play the pitch A.

Pitch is the perceived fundamental frequency of a sound. While the actual fundamental frequency can be precisely determined through physical measurement, it may differ from the perceived pitch because of overtones, or partials, in the sound. The human auditory perception system may also have trouble distinguishing frequency differences between notes under certain circumstances. According to ANSI acoustical terminology, it is the auditory attribute of sound according to which sounds can be ordered on a scale from low to high.

"Pitch" is the frequency at which a sound vibrates. The quicker the wavelength vibrates, the "higher" the pitch will sound.
In standard music notation, pitches have become to be named by a certain letter. In obscure cultural music, there may be pitches that do not match those in standard music notation.
Singing in pitch is being able to match the pitches of a melody.

you sing on the correct notes like if a scoresheet shows this word under a note for example. A, you sing in a tone that is A.
