We were going through the tail end of Holst's Second Suite in F, mvmt 4 (Dargason), and I made an off-hand comment about the band slowing down because the section is quick and harder to play for the basses due to the nature of their instrument.
Cue one of the trombones: "🙋♂ ah, are you speed-shaming the basses?"
Scenario: You slightly botched a trombone solo during last night's band rehearsal. When the director stops and says "Is that how you meant to play it?", what's the best answer?
a) Yes, confidently! b) No! Of course not! c) Well I got a haircut today and it's kind of throwing off my whole embouchure
