In the hands of a good arranger in combo with the flugel and
soprano some interesting results are to be had.
Many arrangements and compositions use this comination
much like a brass section while the solo cornets play
the "violin" parts. The fact that the SA does not use
it probably says more about their traditions than
the rep being useful or not. By and large the non SA
scoring is more inventive and varied when a good arranger (for example
Gordon Langford)
is at work.  A bad rep player makes
the sop and flug players life Hell.
This player must be able to play solos and is
certainly more important than the 3rd and 4th chair
solo cornets.
