[The Jonster]

I’ll just take a wild guess and say B?

[SilentSanctuary]

Nope, David Prowse is actually the main actor for Lord Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy!

[Ray502]

A?

[SilentSanctuary]

Correct! Ian McDiarmid was Emperor Palpatine in the same film series, but he never portrayed Vader.

Question #12: What is the highest-pitched woodwind instrument in a symphonic orchestra?

[Aaron]

Flute?

[SilentSanctuary]

Not exactly. There is still one instrument higher than the flute.

[LoveMetal]

Well, if you take into account contemporary orchestras, it would be probably the sopranino sax, else it would be the piccolo.

[SilentSanctuary]

Piccolo is the answer I'm looking for, although sopranino sax is technically also correct.
