Music Limericks

A Wurlitzer player from Stawell
had broke down in tears in the hall,
he sobbed: "It's not fair
that man over there
remarked that my organ was small!"

A fight in the orchestra pit,
the maestro was having a fit:
"I need to feel proud,
with percussion that's loud -
so I want those kettle drums HIT!"

A drummer was talking one day,
said "Women are like drums to play,
you bang 'em all night,
and then, when it's light,
you pack 'em and put 'em away!"

A cellist went busking to eat,
and set herself up in the street,
she got lots of stares
playing Beethoven airs,
with the bow held between her two feet!

There was a composer named Mozart
Whose music's okay (for the most part)
From the scraping of strings
To the thumping on things
To the large-people-stretching-their-throats part.

There was a composer called Brahms
Whose music has wonderful charms.
Some say its old-fashioned,
Should be banned and then rationed, While others it soothes and it calms.
