A music joke from Germany:
Warum heißen bratsche *Bratsche*? Wenn man draufsitzen macht es *BRATSCH*
Bratsche is a term, if my memory serves me, for the Violins and Violas.
So, when you sit on them(draufsitzen)they make a *crunch*(bratsch) sound.

Here are some music terms:
Cadence: When everybody hopes you're going to stop, but you don't.
Di lasso: Popular with Italian cowboys.
English horn: A woodwind that got its name because it's neither English nor a horn. Not to be confused with French horn, which is German.
Hello Mat,
Yep, the music of Orlando di Lasso is Italian Cowboy Music
Maybe it could also be *Musica di Contadini*

There was a boy in kindergarten who played the viola. One day, he came home and said, "Mommy, today we practiced counting! I got all the way up to 10, but most of the kids messed up around 6 or 7!!!" and his mom said, "Good, that's because you're a violist." The next day he came home and said, "Mommy, today we practiced the alphabet! I got all the way to the end, but most of the kids got messed up around "s" or "t"!" and his mom said, "Good, that's because you're a violist." The next day, he came home and said "Mommy, guess what, they measured us today and I'm the tallest person in the whole class!!! Is that because I'm a violist, too?" and his mom said, "No, dear, that's because you're 25 years old."

"Why?"
"When drums stop......Bass solo begins."
