Speaking of viola, just to stir up an old joke. The local music store is on fire, every thing has been pulled to safety except a saxophone, a viola and an electric guitar. You only have time to save two, what do you do?

Tom Hartley adds: "Responding to the faint applause at the end of the performance, Maestro Bush told the audience, 'It's because of people like you that classical music is dying!'" Comments to blog: Apparently his advisors had told him that the Viola section would welcome him as a liberator. But don't worry, his plan for solving the orchestra's deficit is to cut fundraising. _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/bgross%40airmail.net _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
