Choosing which instrument to play
Saw this floating around Facebook today, don't think I have seen it before.
Good for a giggle or two.

Very much an inside joke!

Short temper. We don't say "long temper", that's "slow to anger." If the chart still doesn't make a lot of sense, it isn't entirely your English to blame.bort wrote:More or less, it's how quickly a person gets angry.Ulli wrote:For a no native speaker: What does temper mean in this case?

Re: Choosing which instrument to play
The correct spelling of repiano is with an 'e'.
The Repiano cornet part is considered a "floating" part, occasionally reinforcing Solo Cornets or the Seconds and Thirds as needed. Sometimes the arrangement will have the Repiano double the Soprano in octaves or at a closer interval. Very often the Repiano shares a part with a completely different instrument like the Fluegelhorn.
