They said, "It's too dainty a tune
to be played on a contrabassoon."
But the thought tantalized him,
And so he surprised them
With a haunting rendition of bass Clair de Lune.

    A really fun piece that lilted along well (although I had to practice the last line twice to get the tempo just right) Liked it!
