Instruments in another language.

Realizing most if not all of you are well versed in recognizing orchestra instruments in another language, I thought it might be nice to have a list for those occasions where you just can't recall. (Like myself the other night. Sheeesh!

) Or, just a refresher.

Hey, I don't see any Danish!

I don't see any bagels either, for that matter

It's discrimination

You're gonna drive me to drinking!

Is there such a thing? I never seen Danish language on a score. Can you post an example?

Goood. Danish is a lot more fun, when you're drinking

One Danish coming up.

Here you are, sir.

This is actually pretty cool! I've never experienced a score written in Bagel.
