Our music faculty has an "entertainment" recording, but the sad thing is it's 
a really bad trumpet recital. Just to show you how much our former trumpet 
professor thought of it, at an International Trumpet workshop (or it could've 
been national) he played this tape at a banquet with all these professional 
trumpet players there. Everyone almost fell out of their chairs laughing.

I was told this story too BEFORE I heard the audition tape. And, when I heard 
it I pretty much understood what was so funny. The poor guy who was 
performing it didn't even know how bad it was, and he was very serious through the 
whole thing, so you had to admire his effort.

Let's just say that the TUNING NOTE was missed about 5 times before he found 
it and it went downhill from there. I think the only thing worse are the 
Tastee brothers.

I really must procure a copy of that tape from my former teacher.
