Musical Limericks No. 3: the Brass Section

The Trumpeter
Thanks to http://www.eardrum.com.au


A jazz-buff who majored on trumpet,
Declined damson jam on his crumpet.
A jazz-player's 'jam' isnae damson, said Tam;
And I'd rather not mess up the drumkit.

The Haughty Hornblower


A Teuchter who played the French horn
Regarded the pipers with scorn,
'Til they kidnapped his mute,
Called his embouchure 'cute',
And defied him to skirl on the lawn.
