I told the oboe joke – (received from Finale earlier this week) to my concert band.
 
Absolute deadpan _expression_, told as tho reporting a real occurrence.
 
I did the same thing to a group of oboe players last night - when I delivered the punchline there was not a smile, not a titter, nothing, no response, until after a longer pause than was respectable one of them said,  "Ah, it's a joke is it?"
 
This is why horn players don't get on with oboists.
 
All the best,
 
Lawrence
