    I guess they had their silencers on.

    Somehow the editorial thinking at that station was, “We’re going to do a story on student musicians but you’re not going to hear them pluck even one note.”

    I remember that a few years ago I saw a poster about a certain Hartz-IV Orchester. I hope that one day we could see these two orchestras play concerts together.
